Hi haukex,

I'm getting the following after running the code below"

Can't exec "/usr/bin/mailx uuencode $zipfile $zipfile -r -s": No such file or directory at ./test-email.pl line 42.

system /usr/bin/mailx uuencode $zipfile $zipfile -r -s logs user@email.com failed: -1 at ./test-email.pl line 42

#!/opt/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;

my $home = $ENV{"HOME"};
print "$home\n";

my $zipfile = "$home/file.zip";
print "$zipfile\n";

my $emailcmd = '/usr/bin/mailx uuencode $zipfile $zipfile -r -s';
print "$emailcmd\n";

my $subject = 'logs';
print "$subject\n";

my $recipient = 'user@email.com ';
print "$recipient\n";

# takes one argument, the filename to encode

use File::Temp qw/tempfile/;
sub uuencode {
    my ($infile) = @_;
    my ($tfh,$tfn) = tempfile(UNLINK=>1);
    open my $fh, '<:raw', $infile or die "$infile: $!";
    printf $tfh "begin %03o %s\n",
        ((stat($infile))[2] & 0666)||0644, $infile;
    my $buf;
    print $tfh pack 'u', $buf while read $fh, $buf, 45;
    print $tfh "`\n", "end\n";
    close $fh; close $tfh;
    return $tfn;
}

#call uuencode sub with param
&uuencode($zipfile);

my @args = ("$emailcmd", "$subject", "$recipient");
system(@args) == 0
 or die "system @args failed: $?";
