gzip will will create the .gz file .

if you want to zip and send it .. try below


gzip <file name with full path> ; uuencode <file name with full path>.gz '<Name of the file which should be seen in receipt mail>' | mailx -s "subject" mail@abc.com

I want to do this way -
First: convert text file to .csv file.
Second: zip .csv
Third: then email the zipped .csv file

Thanks for your help.
