Can you access the file from the local system already? What do you want
to do with the file - copy it, display it, what?

OK, is the file available to the webserver? That is, could you display
it in a browser with a url like http://www.example.com/emailme.html?

If so, you can just fopen() the url and fread() the file.

If it isn't, how do can you access the file from your local machine
without using PHP?

Sorry, my crystal ball is broken. I have no idea what your problem
might be. You have provided no details other than the file doesn't get
attached.

Nope, reading is an art. He deduced he was a spammer, tried to slag off
the tutorial, but gave up due to the fact it wasn't even his...
