how can i send an attached file from command line?

hi,

i need to "cron" a mail attaching a binary file. i am using

uuencode file | mail -s subject destination

uuencode now is not in standard packages, so i compiled it.

is there another easier form to do this?

"mutt -a ..." or "uuenview -a ..."

thanks! works ok!
cat $FILE_BODY | mutt -nx -a $FILE -s "$SUBJECT" $MAIL_TO

exist any command (-e command) to avoid piping the body and obtain
some like:

mutt -nx -a $FILE -s "$SUBJECT" -i $FILE_BODY $MAIL_TO

????
