$to      = "a mail adress";
$file    = "/home/rainbowcode/StatsFile.txt";
$subject = "StatsFile.txt";
$email = "a mail adress";
$message = "Here is your Statsfile; for today";
$headers = "From: $email";
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);

  • Have you considered using a framework? Like Zend Framework: http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.mail.attachments.html – Fabio Mora May 10 '11 at 07:56

    possible duplicate of [php send e-mail with attachment](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3092821/php-send-e-mail-with-attachment) as said there, unless it's for learning, I recommend using a pre-fab package like SwiftMailer. – Pekka May 10 '11 at 07:57

I would recommend using the PEAR Mail_Mime package to easily add attachments.

Once you've created the Mail_Mime object you'll just need to use it's addAttachment() method.

Take a look at this post . As you said it's a bit complicated but hopefully it will work.
