OMG!!! Thanks to all! It actually works!

This is what works for me:

I run a sql script that produces a tab delimited report showing tablespace usage (think of the OEM screen showing all the tablespaces with size, used and free listed).

I then use the following command to send the report to me:

uuencode filename outfile.xls | mailx -s "Dslb1osa Rpt_Tablespaces" tom_at_email_addr

Even though the file is a text file, it still comes along as an attachment!

really cool!

thanks everyone!

Mohammed,

thanks, but the -m option does not seem to exist in Sun Unix.

$ mailx -m
mailx: illegal option -- m
Usage: mailx -eiIUdFntBNHvV~ -T FILE -u USER -h hops -r address

                -s SUBJECT -f FILE users

any other ideas?

You mean:

mailx -m -s "Test Message" me_at_somewhere.com << EOF `ux2dos /home/report/tbsp.lst | uuencode /home/report/tbsp.lst`

This is from an HP-UX system
