Or, for a MIME-compliant mailer that is intended to be 100% upward-
compatible with /usr/bin/Mail, check out ports/mail/heirloom-mailx.

If you can install mail/mutt, you can replace (for the most part)
/usr/bin/mail with /usr/local/bin/mutt and still script it.

Emailing 100+ PDFs, one at a time, to a given address

2009-05-14 Thread Kelly Jones
I need to email 100s of PDFs, 1 per email, to a given address.

What's the easiest way to do this?

/usr/bin/Mail won't work, since
PDFs are binary, so I must first BASE64 encode them.

I could write a Perl script to BASE64 encode them and MIME-wrap them,
but is there an existing tool for this?
