Send attachments with PHP Mail()?

Question

I need to send a pdf with mail, is it possible?

$to = \"xxx\";
$subject = \"Subject\" ;
$message = \'Example message with html\';
$header

Swiftmailer is another easy-to-use script that automatically protects against email injection and makes attachments a breeze. I also strongly discourage using PHP's built-in mail() function.

To use:

• Download Swiftmailer, and place the lib folder in your project
• Include the main file using require_once 'lib/swift_required.php';

Now add the code when you need to mail:

// Create the message
$message = Swift_Message::newInstance()
    ->setSubject('Your subject')
    ->setFrom(array('webmaster@mysite.com' => 'Web Master'))
    ->setTo(array('receiver@example.com'))
    ->setBody('Here is the message itself')
    ->attach(Swift_Attachment::fromPath('myPDF.pdf'));

//send the message          
$mailer->send($message);

More information and options can be found in the Swiftmailer Docs.
