simple mail scripting 1

[Nostradamus]

I'm worthless when it comes to scripting.
I have a Linux system where I want to do the following.
I've encrypted some files using.

gpg --encrypt-files --armor -r [reciever] /my/files/*.csv

This makes a *.csv.asc file for each encrypted file. In my case over a hundred files.

I then want to email these files with the content of the file as the emails text-message.
Something like this...

mail -s [subject] user@mydomain.com < /my/files/file1-100.csv.asc

I want each .asc message to be sent as one email.
So a hundred seperate emails. How can I automate this?
Can I take the output of ls or something and put it after the < sign?
Hope you understand what I mean. If not... ask and I'll try to explain it more clearly.

thanks in advance.

for f in /my/files/*.csv.asc; do
mail -s [subject] user@mydomain.com < $f
done

Hope This Helps, PH.
