I have been working on trying to send a pdf using mime and php. I get the email to send but the attachment is just garbled. I would greatly appreciate any help. I have to looked all over the place for an answer. Hopefully someone will find something for me. The following is what I get in return.
From: Career Choice <info@career-choices.com>
