I'm not sure what version of Laravel you are on so it could be slightly different but you need to use the attach function rather than attachData

return $this->from(config('app.FROM_EMAIL'),config('app.MAIL_FROM_NAME'))
                    ->subject($this->subject)
                    ->view('emails.generalmail')
                    ->attach('[PATH TO FILE]');

See more here: Laravel Mail Docs

Change the version at the top.
