    In this example i developed a page through wich you can send a mail with one attached file from your webpage to a desired e-mail address. You attach the file from you harddrive. It can be developed so you can send more than one file or to more users. I'll maybe start to work on it if i'll have some spare time. :P This code is developed after "PHP Email Attachment v2 by Christoph2k". Thanks for your code, it really helped me out.
