e-mail and attachments

[Wessel Baptist]

Hi,

is it possible to send a file as an attachment by mail on HP9000?
If yes, what must I do?

Hi:

Absolutely possible. See these threads for some guidelines:

to send in body of e-mail an attachement do:

mailx -s 'Subjct' user@company.com < file


This should work

An example:
\cat ${LOGFILE} | \ux2dos | \mailx -s "Cron : ${LOGFILE}" someon@somewhere.com

You need to configure sendmail though...
man sendmail
look on this forum how to, the have been discussions on th subject

Good luck
Victor

[Darrel Louis]

Yes it is possible.

man mailx

-m Do not add MIME header lines Mime Version, Content Type & Content Encoding to the header information while sending mails.

example
# uuencode /tmp/testfile testfile.txt | mailx -m -s 'testje' test@mail.com

[Tony Constantine_1]

We use uuencode
without any problems

uuencode | mailx -s "See Attachment" username@hotmail.com

Hi,
Try elm (you can download it from software.HP.com).

You can also use sendmail and use UUENCODE to send mail-attachments, but the elm is better. The pitty is that elm cannot be automated.
