Bill, What you could do is create the body of the email and encode the attachment directly into the message via content types (I believe it's called MIME). To see what I mean, view the source of an email message with an attachment.
I am not sure though if *all* email programs would honor the embedded code when it's passed via the mailto:, and would instead just display it as inline text as opposed to an attachment. This may create confusion for some users. There is one other consideration that I hope you have not ignored, and that is that a LOT of people don't use traditional email programs. They use web based email like Hotmail or Yahoo Mail. I had implemented a mailto: script in one of my programs, only to replace it later on with a PHP script on my server that would send the email regardless of what type of email they used (or if they even had email at all). I hope that helps you in your efforts. If you're interested in a copy of the PHP script, email me off-list and I'll send you a copy.
