Yep, seen it's not super easy, but not hard either, just done and it is already working using PHPMailer.
A pity I can't access directly to my local file system due to PHP safety rules, but nothing uploading the file into the server and deleting it back after sending the mail can't handle.
The only issue I can see now is that I can't see the sent mails in my sent folder on outlook...
I will have to investigate that further, otherwise, I can send a copy to me and automate outlook to move those messages to the sent folder, but... I hope I'll find a better option.

Thanks for your messages!

I've seen the PHPMailer class that maybe could work for my use case if I could select the file to be attached and I could preview the contents in a page before sending (should be easy to prepare a small form) and the mail would appear in my sent folder afterwards... Will try that approach... thanks for the comment!

Hi Dave, thank you for your post.

Is there any other way to do it?

I'd like to be able to attach the files manually and to check if the results are ok before sending the mail (something that should be ditched after a while) and having the mails sent in my outlook sent folder after sending them (which would be needed to be able to follow up the mails with customers).

That's why I thought the mailto would work for me, but of course I'd love finding a better option.

This works! :jig:, but it sets the focus always, I can of course init the editor with the auto_focus clause only after updating it, but I would prefer being able to set the focus back at the same position it was just after submitting the form.

In any case, it's a major improvement compared on what I had before.

Thanks Richard!
