    You have to use uuencode. I've done it many times.

    I've searched the archive and google but can someone help me with this.
    I send attachments from my aix servers to my groupwise email account
    through our SMTP gateway
    via the < command (ie. mail user@domain <attachement).

    With this method the attachment arrives as the message body rather than an
    attachment as desired.

    Is there another way to do this? Can I make a configuration change in
    sendmail or is this
    a function of my gateway and uuencoded vs MIME attachments?
