That's wrong. This command does not create an attachment at all, it
simply puts the supplied text in the body of the message.
If you wish to send that text as attachment, first save it to a
temporary file, and then attach it using the -A option:
echo "<html><b>Hello</b></html>" > 1.tmp
mail -s "#1" --content-type text/html -A 1.tmp \
address@hidden < /dev/null
rm 1.tmp
Note that the recent changes (commits eabddf8 to 63229086) make it
possible to avoid creation of the temporary. Using git HEAD, you can do
that in one line as follows:
echo "<html><b>Hello</b></html>" | \
mail -s "#1" --content-type text/html -A - \
address@hidden
> Command2:
> echo "<html><b>Hello</b></html>" | mail -s "#2" -a "content-type:
> text/html" address@hidden -A "/Users/vishal/Downloads/00000001.pdf"

I don't quite get what you mean by "command body". What's the intent of
Command2?
