[FX.php List] Email attachments in PHP

[Bob Patin]

thanks,

The question would be where the attachment is saved so that it can get  
attached to an email... that's why I'm thinking it might not be  
possible.

What I'm trying to do is send a MIME attachment with some XML in it;  
I'm assuming that putting the XML code into an email won't do it, is  
that right? From reading the spec for this particular market that I'm  
dealing with, they expect a text email with the info in plain text,  
with a MIME attachment containing the XML code...
