Hi David,

I'm cc-ing mitgcm-devel since others may want to see it.

You need to do just four things:

 1) put all the stuff you want to send into a tar file (see how 
    testreport does it)

 2) use the "mpack" command as contained in:

      MITgcm/tools/mpack-1.6

    to MIME-encode the tar-file within the email and send he email

 3) send the email to either edhill at mitgcm.org or a soon-to-be-created
    generic testing account that will do exactly the same thing

 4) make sure the subject line is "MITgcm-test" since that's 
    what the processing scripts look for -- again see testreport for
    an example

and that's it!

Ed
