Email service accessible from Flex?

[AshleyOwens]

I am looking for functionality where a user enters information in some basic fields, clicks a button and an email is sent with an attachment "behind-the-scenes", where the user does not see or interact with the email or the attachment.
Is there a service with this email functionality that can be accessed from Flex code?

You're looking for smtp servers, and yes very easy to set-up.

Are you talking about accessing an external SMTP server, or does the ArcGIS Server include this functionality?
Furthermore, what class libraries need to be used within the Flex code?  Could you provide an example?
Thanks!!

I found these two links very helpful when I was creating this type of functionality though mine doesn't let people attach stuff. It just emails me the person's name, email address and message.

Has anyone been able to attach a file to an email sent using Flex/php/?  I have first tried the mailto: link, but the "attachment" parameter doesn't seem to work.  I don't see any reference to attachment in the links posted previously in this thread either. 

Is it possible to attach a file to an email?

Thanks for your help!
