many will post links to full-featured php mailer classes...they tend to be
over-blown. here's what i use...if you understand the rfc, modifying the
code below is easily done so that this can handle attachements as well.
actually, this already has an attachement in it...you would use the same
methodology as seen when a logo is added to the below.
hth,

======== email.class.php (php 5)

// $exec w/b if php shelled out to sendmail, qmail, or whatever.
