Yes,
This is true. Whenever an attachment is called into an email, a temporary
file is created that is your attachment, and that file is then attached to
your outgoing email. Thus, the specific call "C:\'Anything'" won't work. I
use inFusion Mail Server, so I don't know exactly how the MIMEATTACH
attribute works (Ie: What you should do to rectify your problem), but now
you have some more information with which to come up with a solution.
Hope this helps.

Subject: <cfmail> File Attachment
I created a simple email form which includes an <INPUT NAME="Attachment"
TYPE="file" size="30">. When I submit the form I receive an error stating:
MIMEATTACH
An invalid file name (C:\test.txt) was specified in the MIMEATTACH
attribute. Please verify that this file exists and that the ColdFusion
service has the privileges required to access it.
My host tech support states that file attachments must be temporarily
located on the server to send via an email attachment.
Is this true? Does someone have experience with email MIMEATTACH?
