I have a form that allows users to upload up to 5 documents, which will be stored on a server.  I then want to send an email that will have those documents as attachments.  How do I go about attaching those documents using cfmail and cffile uploadall?  Or are there better options?

    That's what I was thinking, but wasn't sure how to go about it.  Do I need five cfmailparam tags, or can all five attachements be included with just one cfmailparam tag?  What do I use for file names?

    You need a cfmailparam tag for each file, and the filename for each should

    be available from the cffile upload process.

    Handily, Adobe have documented all of this for us.  How to use CFMAILPARAM:

    Attaching the documents can be accomplished with the cfmailparam tag.
