[rhn-users] What is the simplest way to use command line (mail orsendmail) with an attachment?

[Schirmer Joe]

Try using Perl's Mail::sendmail package.
 
Here's a sample of how easy it is:
 
 
#! /usr/local/bin/perl
use Mail::Sendmail;
%mail = ( To      => ' <mailto:'you at there.com'> you at there.com',
          From    => ' <mailto:'me at here.com'> me at here.com',
          Message => "This is a very short message"
         );
sendmail(%mail) or die $Mail::Sendmail::error;
print "OK. Log says:\n", $Mail::Sendmail::log;

	I have read the sendmail documents that I could find and can
only conclude that I am clueless or that attachments on emails are
beyond diffilcult.
	 
	Is there a tool laying around that can properly package an email
attachment onto an email and send it via a command line protocol?
	 
	Thanks in advance!
