Try my sendfile shell script: http://www.pobox.com/~agreene/downloads/ It uses the syntax: sendfile filename recipientlist It looks in ~/mime.types and /etc/mime.types to try to assign a MIME type that is consistent with the filename extension. It defaults to application/octet-stream. It uses mmencode to base64 encode the attachment. mmencode is part of the metamail package. Tony -- Anthony E.
