Firstly this can be simplified to simply:

email user AT example -s test -a $(echo *.pdf|sed "s/ /,/g") <sample.txt

but this will not work if any filename or pathname contains spaces.  You
can solve that with:

email user AT example -s test -a "$(sh -c 'IFS=,; echo "$*"' -- *.pdf)" \
		<sample.txt
