Bash Script 'noname' attachments gmail when using uuencode and mailx?

Question

I need to encrypt and send files through scripts. When I use uuencode to send an email, I always get a noname file with myfile?

`\#!/bin/sh 

TEMP_FILE1=my_file.csv 
TEMP_FILE2=my_file.csv.zip 
TEMP_FILE3=text_body.txt 
Command 
cd /part_file 
zip -P passw0rd my_file.csv.zip my_file.csv 
to="myemail@gmail.com" 
(uuencode $TEMP_FILE2 $TEMP_FILE2 ; cat "$TEMP_FILE3" ) | mailx -s 'Subject' -r "myemail@gmail.com" "$to"`

Please review my script and help find a solution.

Thank.

Indeed, don't use `uuencode` unless you specifically need to communicate with the 1980s. – tripleee Jan 25 '23 at 06:22
