I'm using Outlook 2007. I'm able to send/receive the file with no issues when I run my code from HU-UX.

---------- Post updated at 02:20 PM ---------- Previous update was at 02:01 PM ----------

I figured it out, my new code is as follows:

Code:
 
cat $msgfile1 |mailx -r from_email@example.com -s "Waiver Report" -a $extract to_email@example.com

I now get the attachment with no garbage in the email body.

You might be happier with a mail client that knows how to do the attach, like mutt?
