[olug] How to MIME encode

[Jay Hannah]

Quoting Bob McCoy <bob at mccoy.net>:
> Does anyone know how to MIME encode a binary file for emailing?  In the
> past I've used uuencoding and that worked fine.  However, I'm now
> mailing this file to another service that only seems to understand MIME
> encoding.  Here is the original code snippet:
> 
>     tar czf - `cat $FILELIST` | uuencode bccfiles.tar.z | mail -s "BCC
> Files" $ADMIN
> 
> What command would I need to use to MIME encode the data instead of
> uuencode?
