Send HTML attachment by email

[Former Member]

Hello everybody,

I made a program to send by email an HTML file as attachment. All works fine except that the HTML file is not attach to the mail, instead of that the HTML code is inserted in the email body.

The same code works fine for XLS, PDF format, attachment is created, but not for HTM or TXT format.

I'm in 4.6C. I think the problem is coming from the configuration of SAPConnect.

Here is the routine code :

*&---------------------------------------------------------------------*
*&      Form  send_mail
*&---------------------------------------------------------------------*
*       Send mail
*----------------------------------------------------------------------*
*      -->PT_HTML  Attachment file containing HTML code
*      -->PW_EMAIL Email address
*      <--PW_RCODE Return code
*----------------------------------------------------------------------*

Thanks for your answers but I have already watch all this thread or try all this program.

As I said above, my program works fine when I specify that my attachment has an XLS or an PDF format, but not with html format, the email body contains the html code and no attachment.

Compare your program with Rich's program in the following thread:
