sending email in linux as subject and attachment

问题:

1. I have a file that is about 10 columns wide and try to send it as body. mailx fails sending it as body and sends it as a ATT00001.bin file and as an attachment.

   mail -s "Subject" emailaddress < file.tsv

   Is there way to solve this.

2. When I try to send it as an attachment, using uuencode

   echo "body" | uuencode inputattachment.tsv attachment.tsv) | mailx -s "subject" emailaddress

   I get an email with text that is encoded and looks like this:

begin 644 report7.tsv
M1&%T92`@("!3=&%T=7,@(#XS,"5V;VP@/C$P)75M("!T;W1A;"UL;V=S("`@

How do I solve 1 and 2? Does this have anything to do with MS outlook? I will need to do something that MS Outlook supports.

回答1:

There are at least a couple of programs that you can use to send a message with attachments:

1. The mailx program on my Linux system has a -a option for attaching files as MIME parts:

   echo Test body | mail -s "Test subject" -a test.txt [e-mail]
   

2. Mutt will also do this:

   echo Test body | mutt -s "Test subject" -a test.txt -- [e-mail]
