Can you give us some details of what is in file.csv, is it really a Comma-separated values file?

Do you want the headings bold, formatted like a table, or what?

Basically, what we would do is process the .csv file with and awk script that formatted it how you want and then pass it on to sendmail.

Code:
awk '....some formatting here...' file.csv | sendmail example@example.com

Have a go with my previous example and just change the email address to your address to see what we are talking about.

Try something like this:
Code:
mails -s 'My Subject
Content-type: text/html' my_recipients <my_file.html
