Just a note here, if your e-mail server doesn't mind you using ftpmail, it might be a good idea to learn how to use it. UUENCODE, or UUE does a better job with some binary information than does linx [linx seems to think that *.deb is a ASCII file, does anybody know how to change this so I can send a comment to CCIL [a local linux server] on how to reconfig so this doesn't continue to happen to me?]. Anybody who wants more information on ftpmail can send me a private e-mail, or if you feel its appropriate I will post it on the debain-user list.
