Managers, Thanks for the quick responses. Those I received are immediately below. My original email is below that. ================== Response #1: You need a mail client program like elm or pine, which either works with or has embedded the mimencode program. If you are planning to automate a mail attachment process, then elm is a better choice, as it uses an [include] statement in the body of the mail to generate the MIME protocol headers and encoded message body. Larye D. Parkins ================== Response #2 (from Stephen Michaels, Frank Smith and Tim Evans): Use the mpack utility. It's available on sunfreeware.com. ================== Response #3 (from Blaine Owens): Use uuencode: uuencode filename attachment.name | mailx -s "Subject" user ================== Response #4 (from Lars Hecking): sendmail is a mail transport agent, it doesn't care about the content of email. If you bother to do a serach on Google groups, you'll find that this question is asked and probably answered several times every day! ================== Darryl -----Original Message----- From: sunmanagers-admin@sunmanagers.org [mailto:sunmanagers-admin@sunmanagers.org] On Behalf Of Darryl Pace Sent: Thursday, April 18, 2002 1:05 PM To: sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org Subject: sendmail and attachments Managers, Is it possible, using sendmail, to send files as attachments and not as a plain text portion of the body of the email. All of my experience with sendmail has been using a plain text body. Are attachments possible, and if so, how? Thanks, and will summarize.
