I believe you will need to stuff the body into the mime-headers like another
attachment and have the body be empty... Even that *may* not work...
Another option is to bypass the mail() function entirely and just fsockopen
to port 25 and fread/fwrite the right stuff to talk to SMTP. It ain't
rocket science -- I've even managed to do it for regular mail in higher
volume than mail() can handle.
Disclaimer: I'd find it easier to snag somebody else's attachment class,
and I hate classes in PHP... You could just look at their source and see
how they do it.
