I'm writing a form which allows the user to send an image attachment with their email...

<form method=post action="sendPic" ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data"> <p>Attach: <input type="file" name="pic.jpg"></p>

<p>Send to:</p> <p> <input type="checkbox" name="send_to:list" value="mymail@mail.ca"> My email </p> <input type=submit value="Send Picture"> </form>

------ it's handled with sendPic -----------

<dtml-sendmail smtphost="mail.host.ca"> To: art critic From: patron Subject: Art

Hi, please take a look at my art and post it if you think it's good enough.

<dtml-mime type=image/jpeg encode=base64 name=resume><dtml-var pic.jpg > </dtml-mime>

</dtml-sendmail>
