Gary,
You email the attachment and what client decodes the attachment?
What are the options of your mutt configuration? If you send from
yourself to yourself is the PDF corrupt?

The client is MS Outlook. Mutt worked fine on my older SCO box sending PDF
files. We retired the SCO for Solaris 9 and the same scripts will not send the
PDF correctly.
I created a test script from the larger script that uses mutt:
UB="Test Mutt"
ATTACH="INV_767580_20050921.pdf"
TO_ADDR="xyz@abc.com"
MESSSAGE="Hello"
mutt -x -s "${SUB}" -c "${CC_ADDR}" -b "${BCC_ADDR}" -a "${ATTACH}" \
-e "my_hdr From: ${FROM_ADDR}" "${TO_ADDR}"<
${MESSAGE}
SEND_NO_ATTACH

Gary,
Is the above a typo SEND_ATTACH and SEND_NO_ATTACH?
Have you tried accessing the same mailing with a different email client
Eudora, Thunderbird? Do you get the same result?
