How to include PDF file with spaces
I am able to include a pdf file as an attachment in an email using the following:

echo "[include YTD0406.pdf application/adobe base64]" > reports
elm -s "RW100 PDF Reports" me@myemail.com < reports

However, if I have a filename that contains some spaces, I'm not so lucky. I've tried:
echo "[include \"Exh B3 YTDP1 0406.pdf\" application/adobe base64]" > reports

but no luck. I keep getting No Content-type given, include line ignored

Any ideas how to resolve this?

TIA,

Jeff

Not sure about this one. Maybe two things to try (untested):

1) Put \ before the space
2) Replace a space with %20

Let me know the result of applying each one.
