Sending an Attachment using SMTP

[GeneT]

I am sending an email as part of the Java module using SMTP. I have everything
working except figuring out how to include an attachment. Does anyone have
any suggestions?

Thanks

If you are using the JavaMail product (which you can download from Sun's
Java Developer site) it has methods for including attachments and examples
of how to do it. If you are using raw SMTP then I don't know how.

To send an attachment you will need to create a multipart MIME message that contains the attachment as a separate part. This is well documented in RFC 1521.
