Unix Email Attachments to Netscape Mail

I need some help with unix email.
I would like a way to send files from unix system via sendmail or mailx with email attachments.
I have tried using uuencode and decode however the file is embedded in the body of the Netscape Mail and not as an attachment.
I have a script that first makes a tarfile and then sends it as an attachment to my emailadress: uuencode ${TARFILE} ${TARFILE}|mail -s"your subject" your@email
Of course you can do this with any type of file. I have tried it with gifs and that works as well. Hope this helps.
