read my last mail again: 'mutt' reads is mailbody from stdin, so you can
either

$ mutt -s "myfile" -a /etc/inittab user@domain < /dev/null

to attach the file to a mail with an otherwise empty body or

$ mutt -s "myfile" user@domain < /etc/inittab

to include your (text-)file in the mailbody

hth,
Walter
