May be a little tricky, but what you could do is have the swf housed
on your server
and reference it in your html email. If they have display html
enabled, your swf should load fine.
With the SWFs object/embed other content options, you can set a
regular JPEG with a link if they don't have flash or it doesn't work
in the email, that sends them to your swf online.
if all else fails.
Or possibly you can do a file attach and have the swf sent with the
message
and with the swf placement in your html email, reference the
attachment in the message..
When you attach the file, look for the PHP mailer script that sends
the binary data attachment. May help.
You could make a link in your message that just downloads your
attachment to their HD.
Most email programs have a tmp folder to store attachments that you
could reference.
Oh, and set your swf security priority to network only.
Although, I think this may be doing a little too much though.

Np. That example is very basic.
There is a lot of things missing. Like checking variables before
sending.
You can also expand it to utilize a database.
Then you create a email list page, select the persons you want to
email to and hit send.
With some modifications, you can have it send to everyone all at
once.

Happy coding!

Thanks Karl, though I should say I was pretty comfortable with the
generation of emails through a PHP mailer. In this case the project
is pretty simple - generic flash animation which isn't personalised
and I anticipate I won't be at all involved in mailing it out.
My main query was really more about the best way to deliver the
flash animation in the email content and the answer so far seems to
be what the only way I knew before - via a link.
