Attachments
Files can be attached to an e-mail using the createAttachment() method. The default behavior
of Zend_Mail is to assume the attachment is a binary object (application/octet-stream),
that it should be transferred with base64 encoding, and that it is handled as an attachment. These assumptions can be
overridden by passing more parameters to createAttachment():
E-Mail Messages with Attachments
createAttachment($someBinaryString);
$mail->createAttachment($myImage,
'image/gif',
Zend_Mime::DISPOSITION_INLINE,
Zend_Mime::ENCODING_8BIT);
]]>
If you want more control over the MIME part generated for this attachment you can use the return value
of createAttachment() to modify its attributes. The createAttachment() method
returns a Zend_Mime_Part object:
createAttachment($myImage);
$at->type = 'image/gif';
$at->disposition = Zend_Mime::DISPOSITION_INLINE;
$at->encoding = Zend_Mime::ENCODING_8BIT;
$at->filename = 'test.gif';
$mail->send();
]]>
An alternative is to create an instance of Zend_Mime_Part and add it with addAttachment():
type = 'image/gif';
$at->disposition = Zend_Mime::DISPOSITION_INLINE;
$at->encoding = Zend_Mime::ENCODING_8BIT;
$at->filename = 'test.gif';
$mail->addAttachment($at);
$mail->send();
