I am trying to use the uuencode command to pass multiple files to the =
mailx command, like this:
uuencode $PATH/file_name*.rpt   file_name*.rpt | mailx -s "files are =
attached"  "$mail_address"

The uuencode command does not seem to allow the filename expansion. =20
Is there a way to send multiple files with uuencode?
