[Zope] image attachments in dtml-sendmail and dtml-mime

[Matt]

Thanks Kapil, that works brilliantly, I didn't see a 'data' member in the
quick reference and certainly didn't see a data() method which I was
expecting.  I guess I should be looking at the source.  The following is
what I ended up with

<dtml-sendmail mailhost="MailHost">
To: Feedback Recipient <matt.bion@eudoramail.com>
From: Zope Feedback Form <matt.bion@eudoramail.com>
Subject: Feedback from the web

 Feedback from : Matt
 Comments:
 <dtml-var some_text>

<dtml-mime type=image/jpeg encode=base64 name=paris.jpg><dtml-var
"paris.data">
  </dtml-mime>

 </dtml-sendmail>

Giving the mime tag a name and setting encoding to base64 made it a nicer
experience at the other end.

thanks
Matt Bion
