I believe that you need to uuencode the file you want to send, the
uunecoded file can be send in this way:=20
=20
mail user@host < uuencoded.file
=20
this of course is used when the file you want to send is a binary one, if
the file you want to send is a TEXT one you don=B4t need to uuencode it jus=
t
send it with:
=20
mail user@host < text.file
=20
hope this helps, other hint  "read the uuencode and uudecode manuals"
=20
man uuencode
=20
=20
or=20
=20
man uudecode

bye!
