`I am setting up mailing functionality in my website using mailgun. I can send mail using the mailgun API, both text and HTML content. However, I need to sent mail with calendar attachment, but couldn't find any better way to do that in ColdFusion. Could any one please help me out?

<cfhttpparam type="formfield" name="from"
value="[email protected]" >
<cfhttpparam type="formfield" name="to" value="[email protected]" />
<cfhttpparam type="formfield" name="subject" value="mail content" />
<cfhttpparam type="formfield" name="text" value="mail content from test account" />
<cfhttpparam type="formfield" name="attachment" value="my path" />
</cfhttp>
For the invite.ics calendar file, I first wrote this file into a folder and so I can provide the path to cfhttpparam for the name attachment. After sending the mail I just removed that from my folder. It is simple as that for any type of file.
