I did something similar with running a processcmd of type $fieldname$ > filename Then do an addatachment function (not looking at the exact function name) of the file. I even did multiple files into a directory (ie the attachments in the worklog), zipped them up and imported the zip file which was later used as an attachment to the approval email - then the folks just replied to the email with 'Approve' or 'Reject' (plus some variations of those words).
