Not even when you create the message with the correct MIME-headers and base64-encode your attachment within the correct MIME-section? That's a fair amount of code to write, but a stored procedure in, say TCL, should be able to handle that. Or am I missing something?

Whether it's a good idea to let the database encode attachments and send e-mails is a different matter, but if it isn't doing much beside that - well, why not?
