Here is a function I use that might help:
function mail_attachment ($to, $subject, $message, $addr_from, $attachment,
$filename) {
/*
This function sends an e-mail with a file attachment using the
standard
PHP mail function with parameters $to, $subject and $message.
The $attachment parameter is a string with the attachment file
content
which will be named $filename.

$boundary = "b".md5(uniqid(time()));
$mime = "From: $addr_from\r\n";
$mime .= "Reply-To: $addr_from\r\n";
$mime .= "X-Mailer: Digital Healthcare Solutions\r\n";
$mime .= "X-Sender: $addr_from\r\n";
$mime .= "Content-type: multipart/mixed; ";
$mime .= "boundary = $boundary\r\n\r\n";
$mime .= "This is a MIME encoded message.\r\n\r\n";
// First the regular message
$mime .= "--$boundary\r\n";
$mime .= "Content-type: text/plain\r\n";
$mime .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64";
$mime .= "\r\n\r\n".chunk_split(base64_encode($message))."\r\n";
// Now the attachment
$mime .= "--$boundary\r\n";
$mime .= "Content-type: text/plain\r\n";
$mime .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\r\n";
$mime .= "Content-Disposition: attachment; ";
$mime .= "filename = ".chr(34).$filename.chr(34);
$mime .= "\r\n\r\n".chunk_split(base64_encode($attachment))."\r\n";
$mime .= "--$boundary--";
mail ($to, $subject, "", $mime);
}

You cannot attach a file using the mail() function in PHP. You will have to
use a SMTP PHP class or another MIME enabled class to use attachments.
