After learn send email with dual format (HTML/text), we will learn how to send email with attachment. In this situation, we will make the primary MIME type be multipart/mixed so that we can do an attachment or two.
<?php
// Setting a timezone, mail() uses this.
date_default_timezone_set('America/New_York');
// recipients
$to = "you@phpeveryday.com" . ", " ; // note the comma
$to .= "we@phpeveryday.com";
// subject
$subject = "Test for Attachement";
// Create a boundary string. It needs to be unique
$sep = sha1(date('r', time()));
// Add in our content boundary,
// and mime type specification:
$headers .=
"\r\nContent-Type: multipart/alternative;
boundary=\"PHP-alt-{$sep}\"";
// Read in our file attachment
$attachment = file_get_contents('attachment.zip');
$encoded = base64_encode($attachment);
$attached = chunk_split($encoded);
// additional headers
$headers .= "To: You <you@phpeveryday.com>,
We <we@phpeveryday.com>\r\n";
$headers .= "From: Me \r\n";
$headers .= "Cc: he@phpeveryday.com\r\n";
$headers .= "Bcc: she@phpeveryday.com\r\n";
