Yes, Outlook processes only one attachment from the command line, thanks to Microsoft. It would only be possible via a native Windows API. Maik

Maik, One solution with Outlook is to prepare a tarball on attachments before. The same problem exists with Apple Mail application. Gilles

It looks like Microsoft has recently become aware of the problem: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/all/how-to-attached-multiple-files-using-outlook-365/34e472bf-6a84-47a2-81c6-f756dcb6b489 The only alternative currently possible would be to create a ZIP file.

Hi Maik, yes, and definitively, create an archive with KF6::KArchive framework is the best way for all platforms. A similar bug exists for the Apple Mail application under macOS. Gilles
