I also wonder if using Eudora allows for sending >attachments.I think rather than trying to figure out how Eudora stores its internal files, it would be better to explore [AppleScript] as the means of talking to Eudora. Then you can create new messages with attachments, etc, without having to learn MIME and all that other junk.Eudora has an extensive set of scriptable commands, and you can see these by opening its dictionary with Script Editor.Others on this last have been able to send attachments by using [WriteFile] and MIME information using WebCatalog's own Emailer program (because attachments are really just some extra text in the body of the email).Personally we explored all these possibilities years ago and decided that the best solution for attachments is to send people URLs leading to download files, rather than trying to use email. The main problem is that lots of other email packages can't seem to accept various types of attachments, ZIP files, SIT, TAR, GZIP, etc., and it just gets too confusing.Technical Support | ==== eCommerce and Beyond ==== Pacific Coast Software | WebCatalog, WebMerchant, 11770 Bernardo Plaza Court | SiteEdit Pro, PhotoMaster, San Diego, CA 92128 | Typhoon 619/675-1106 Fax: 619/675-0372 | http://www.smithmicro.com/
