I am attempting to automail a file as an attachment.

I have been able to automail the contents of a file with the following
command line:


mail -s 'TESTMAIL' user@mydomain.com < /tmp/file.to.send


but of course this wont work with a tarball, I need to be able
to "attach" the file rather than its contents...

I checked the man page for mail and it doesnt specify any swtich
for attaching a file.....is there a way to do this ?
