Thanks to all who responded. I got several suggestions such as mpack, mutt, uudeview, uuencode, metamail, perl, pine, and dtmail. So, I'll send this up to management, and see which they'll choose. Thanks again to the forum.

I have been asked to come up with a solution that would provide the ability for the DBA's to send out file (mainly .pdf files)attachments using UNIX mail/mailx. I have done a lot of research and have found several methods to accomplish the task, however, I would much like to get the thoughts of the forum, you guys.

I have also found mpack and mutt that do work just fine. I have also briefly looked at pine and metamail. Was wanted to see what you all thought would be the best solution, or maybe have other ways to attach files. Thanks for your time.
