BlueSkyIS Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 i use a class called htmlMimeMail which takes out much of the mime pain: include_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']."/includes/htmlMimeMail.php"); $mail = new htmlMimeMail(); $attachment_file = $mail->getFile($upload_dir . $local_file); $mail->addAttachment($attachment_file, $local_file, 'application/octet-stream'); $mail->setText($message); $mail->setReturnPath($return_address); // Set some head $mail->setFrom($return_address); $mail->setSubject($subject); $result = $mail->send(array($recipient)); http://www.phpguru.org/static/mime.mail.html Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/74468-sending-attachment-using-mail/#findComment-376284 Share on other sites More sharing options...
