Try using using the *expand* command, which converts tabs to spaces, e.g.:

cat message.txt | expand | mailx -s "Test message" you_at_yourdomain.com

Subject: how to send a fixed-format mail from unix

I am trying to send the output of a sqlplus script from Unix (using mailx) to Lotus Notes addresses.

The output looks formatted on Unix, but when opened in Lotus Notes, the formatting is no longer there.

Any Tips?

Thanks,
Deepak
