UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers

I have a program the will split a large file into smaller files. It works great. I, however, have problem of email these file out to other people:

I may have 1 or more files afer SPLIT

datafileaa
datafileab
datafileac

manually:

mailx -s "data" email@email.com<datafileaa
mailx -s "data" email@email.com<datafileab
mailx -s "data" email@email.com<datafileac

and or so on

how can I create a program the will email all these files to other.

This doesn't work:

( echo "Your message goes here"
for file in /path/to/file*
do
uuencode $file $(basename $file)
done
) | mailx -s "Your Subject" email@mail.com

Can someone help?

don't work means what ? are you getting some error or not gettting the email ??
