RE: CFMAIL multipart and attachment

2003-07-22 Thread Stephenie Hamilton
I do the same thing (except no images) in our welcome letter as many
people, especially developers do not want html email..

  !--- cfset default email params ---
CFSET MIMEBOUNDARY = MIME-BOUNDARY
cfset crlf = chr(13)chr(10)
CFSET contenttype = multipart/alternative;
boundary=MIMEBOUNDARY
CFSET myHeaders = X-Mailer: MIME-Version: 1.0
CFSET myPlainMsgTop = --#MIMEboundary##crlf#Content-Type: text/plain;
charset=us-ascii#crlf#Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit#crlf##crlf#

CFSET myHTMLMsgTop = --#MIMEboundary##crlf#Content-Type: text/html;
charset=us-ascii#crlf#Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit#crlf##crlf#


cfmail to=#email# from=[EMAIL PROTECTED] subject=Welcome to
CFXHosting! type=HTML
cfmailparam name=Content-type value=#contenttype#
cfmailparam name=MIME-Version value=1.0

!--- plain text version ---
#myPlainMsgTop#

Plain text content here

!--- html version ---
#myHTMLMsgTop#

 html content here
/cfmail 


This allows users who have html email enabled to receive the html
version and if they don't they get the plain text

Subject: CFMAIL multipart and attachment


I know this is possible, but I just can't get it to work.

Marketing wants to send out a message to a bunch of our customers. Being
Marketing, of course, they want to send HTML e-mail. I've convinced them
that 1) Lots of people don't want/can't read HTML e-mail and 2) that
links to a website from an HTML message to retrieve an image is are
often (wisely) blocked within e-mail. So, I've convinced them that there
should be a text alternative and that the image should be sent attached
to the message.

I can create an e-mail message with a plain text alternative section. I
can create a message with the image attached. Unfortunately, I've been
unable to do both.

Help?

I'm using CF5.0 on W2K. A non-CFMAIL solution is not viable.

Yeah, I can do that. It's the images that are throwing me for a loop.

I may have a solution. I was able to find a modified version of Jochem van
Dieten's old CF_ADVANCEDEMAIL tag floating around. It looks like it will do
exactly what I need.
