Ok...I need to send a text file attachment using mail. I know every one is going to want to recommend uuencode but when I use this method I get extra tabs, spaces, etc. that I do not want (see example below). Any help on this subject will be GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!!

Desired result
"l564029","55","5","0","5"

Result using uuencode
"xepi345","55","9","0","9""xepi117","55","8","0","8""xepi345","55","5","0","5""xepi117","52","9","0","9"


Code:
uuencode file1 file2 | mail "Subject" user@helpme.com
