Hi Nitin,

 

Must you use the mail command or can you just any command, mutt may be a
better option when dealing with attachments (its sorts out the MIME
types for you so you don't need to add extra stuff to your script in
order to ensure that the attachment is going to be readable on the other
side - more applicable when sending binary attachments through older
systems)

 

Unless it is not installed, you can use mutt as follows in scripts to
send a mail with an attachment:

 

echo "message body goes here" |mutt -s "subject goes here" -a
filename_with_full_path_goes_here email at address.goes.here

 

if you need it to go to many addresses (not limited to 3, this is an
example only), use:

echo "message body goes here" |mutt -s "subject goes here" -a
filename_with_full_path_goes_here
email1 at address.goes.here,email2 at address.goes.here,email3 at address.goes.he
re

 

if you need to attach multiple files, just add another -a argument:

echo "message body goes here" |mutt -s "subject goes here" -a
filename1_with_full_path_goes_here -a filename2_with_full_path_goes_here
-a filename3_with_full_path_goes_here email at address.goes.here

 

Cheers,

Colin
