how send an rtf file as inline body of email (not as an attachment)

sendmail/mailx < test.rtf is not working

What are you setting the content-type to?

#!/usr/bin/ksh

export MAILTO="xxx@yyy.com"
export CONTENT="1.rtf"
export SUBJECT="Subject"
(
echo "Subject: $SUBJECT"
echo "MIME-Version:1.0"
echo "Content-Type:text/html"
echo "Content-Disposition:inline"
echo "Content-Transfer-Encoding:7bit"
cat $CONTENT
) > test2.dat
/usr/sbin/sendmail $MAILTO < test2.dat

Email coming as :
{\rtf1\adeflang1025\ansi\ansicpg1252\uc1\adeff31507\deff0\stshfdbch31506\stshfloch31506\stshfhich315 06\stshfbi31507\deflang1033\deflangfe1033\themelang1033\themelangfe0\themelangcs0{\fonttbl{\f0\fbidi \froman\fcharset0\fprq2{\*\panose 02020603050405020304}Times New Roman;}{\f34\fbidi \froman\fcharset1\fprq2{\*\panose 02040503050406030204}Cambria Math;} {\f37\fbidi \fswiss\fcharset0\fprq2{\*\panose 020f0502020204030204}Calibri;}{\flomajor\f31500\fbidi \froman\fcharset0\fprq2{\*\panose 02020603050405020304}Times New Roman;} {\fdbmajor\f31501\fbidi \froman\fcharset0\fprq2{\*\panose 02020603050405020304}Times New Roman;}{\fhimajor\f31502\fbidi \froman\fcharset0\fprq2{\*\panose 02040503050406030204}Cambria;} {\fbimajor\f31503\fbidi \froman\fcharset0\fprq2{\*\panose 02020603050405020304}Times New Roman;}{\flominor\f31504\fbidi \froman\fcharset0\fprq2{\*\panose 02020603050405020304}Times New Roman;} {\fdbminor\f31505\fbidi \froman\fcharset0\fprq2{\*\panose 02020603050405020304}Times New Roman;}{\fhiminor\f31506\fbidi \fswiss\fcharset0\fprq2{\*\panose 020f0502020204030204

RTF is not HTML.

what should be content type, i tried text/rtf and it didn't work

application/rtf
might work. If the user agent doesn't support rtf, it won't work.

hello guys.

Please, what do you mean by User Agent ?? Well I'm having problems to send rtf inline mail bodies. Well, the problem is that I'm sending to a Lotus Notes mail and unfortunatelly I cannot test with any other mail. Has anybody sent an e-mail to lotus notes with inline rtf before ???? I'd be glad for any comments. Thanks.
