attaching file to email

[sirtcarlos]

i have a form that i require an individual to upload a file with. however, i am not putting the attachment in a db, i need it to simply attach to an html email message. i tried using:
<cfif DirectoryExists( ExpandPath( ".\ResumeFolder\" ) )>
<cffile action="upload"
fileField="resume"
destination="#GetTempDirectory()#"
nameconflict="makeunique"
accept="text/plain,application/msword,application/pdf,application/rtf">
Cover Letter/Resume/Writing Sample: <cfmailparam file="#resume#" />
<cfelse>
<cfdirectory directory="#ExpandPath( ".\ResumeFolder\" )#" action="create">
<cffile action="upload"
fileField="resume"
destination="#GetTempDirectory()#"
nameconflict="makeunique"
accept="text/plain,application/msword,application/pdf,application/rtf">
Cover Letter/Resume/Writing Sample: <cfmailparam file="#resume#" />
</cfif>

however, sometimes the emails will be received on mac computers, sometimes on pc's. i need a method that will not require an absolute path to a folder on the hard drive. is it possible to simply attach a document to an email alone?

check cfmailparam tag in the docs.

It doesn't matter what type of computer your mail recipients are using. All the directory stuff applies to your server.
