I've found in my notes from someone else's previous posting the following (which I've excerpted):

>gzip -c myfile > myfile.gz
>echo "[include myfile.gz application/octet-stream base64]" > myfile.gz.uu

>elm -s "Subject - myfile.gz" username@mailaddr.com < myfile.gz.uu

Many thanks to Pete, Ivan, John and Deoncia,

It works, I was missing the option "-m" in mailx .
