I spoke with Dean as well, the author, and he advised the same. I wrote
a little script that accomplishes what I need, and wanted to share it,
pasted in line below:
email.bash
#!/bin/bash
export file=""
for x in *.pdf; do
export file=$file,$x
done
echo $file
email user@domain.com -s test -a $file < sample.txt
Hope someone finds some use for it.
