Hi
Tony,
Thanks! That was definitely the answer I was
looking for.
Originally I wanted to use sendmail for this but I couldn't seem to get the encoding right on the PDF file. It would send through ok but when it came to opening it, Acrobat would throw it out as a corrupted file, so I gave up on that and used Mutt.
This way makes things so much easier for me.

Thanks again.
