What Operating System and version are you using?

Some ideas about how to use "mailx with ~c" in one of my previous posts.
https://www.unix.com/shell-programmin...x-cc-list.html

If you search for "mailx cc" in this site there are loads more ideas but without knowing the format of your mail address list file it's hard to guess.

Tilde escapes need to be in the start of the message, not on the command line, e.g.
Code:
echo "~c $ccname" > combined.txt
cat message.txt attachment.txt >> combined.txt
mailx -s "Monthly report" $name < combined.txt
