The trick is to uuencode it. Here's a snippet from a shell script I
use to convert an HTML document with images to a .pdf and mail it to
myself:
echo "Latency graphs for" `date` > /tmp/mailphcsc.$$
echo " " >>/tmp/mailphcsc.$$
htmldoc --webpage -f /tmp/latencyphcsc.pdf latencyphcsc.html
uuencode /tmp/latencyphcsc.pdf latencyphcsc.pdf >>/tmp/mailphcsc.$$
cat /tmp/mailphcsc.$$ | mailx -s "Latency Graphs" [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I'm using a tmp file since I'm adding text around the attachment. It
can probably be done with just a:
cat spreadsheet.xls | uuencode spreadsheet.xls | mail \
