Hi,

After i click some button i would like to mail a text file as an attachment to a specific e-mail address, how do i do that?

Can i do it with a mail command in PHP ?

The quick answer is yes it works.

For more details I recommend taking a look at: <A HREF="http://www.phpbuilder.com/columns/kartic20000807.php3">http://www.phpbuilder.com/columns/kartic20000807.php3</a>

yes,

1) either as a part of the body
or
2) (as you requested) as a MIME attachment.

Look at this :

<?

//

//

//globales
$headers='';
$subject='';
$recipient='';
$body='';
$separateur='';

function CreateEmail($destinataires,$sujet,$contenu) {

// REMISE à VIDE
$headers='';
$subject='';
$recipient='';
$body='';
$separateur='12EDAIN34';
$From="Robot MyCompany. <myemailaddress>";
//séparateur

$subject=$sujet;
// headers de base

} else { // cas par défaut ou To:

Download the PEAR class (<A HREF="http://pear.php.net">http://pear.php.net</a>). Then you can use the Mail_mime class:

<?php

require "Mail.php";
require "Mail/mime.php";

$headers['From'] = "addressfrom@yourdomain.com";
$headers['Subject'] = "Here is the subject";

// create MIME object
$mime = new Mail_mime;

//add body parts
$text = "The body of your email";
$mime->setTXTBody($test);

// Add attachment
$file = "/path/to/yourfile.txt";
$mime->addAttachment($file, "text/plain");

// get MIME formatted message headers and body
$headers = $mime->headers($headers);
$body = $mime->get();

// Send email
$message =& Mail::factory('mail');
$message->send($to, $headers, $body);
?>
