Problem with mailx command when sending attachment.
Hi,
I have tried to sent a mail with body and attachment. But the shell script got hanging while executing that command. The command is
"(cat body;uuencode att1.csv)|mailx -s "Production Monitoring Report(Unix Side)"
milton.yesusundaram@patni.com"
where body is a file having a single line.
att1.csv is a comma separating values file.
Can anyone please help on getting the reason for hanging of the script.
Thanks in advance,
Milton.
