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

[Howard, Chris]

One way to do it:
 
uuencode filename.txt  filename.txt | mailx -s"here is that file"  otherguy at mail.address
 
 
Most email clients will show filename.txt as an attachment.

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!
