Unable to send attachment with the click of button which will redirect to my email Id. I am getting subject and Body but not attachment. Kindly help here...

Here is the Apex and VF code for the reference:-

//Apex Code
  
public class sendEmailbuttonApex
{
    public Account accounts                     {set;get;}
    public String subject 				{set;get;}
    public String body 			        {set;get;}
    public blob Attach                                {set;get;}  

    public sendEmailbuttonApex(Apexpages.StandardController controller)
    {
        accounts=(Account)controller.getRecord();
        accounts=new Account(Name='Test');
    }
    public PageReference sendEmail()
    {
        List<Contact> conList=[Select Id, Email from contact where Email='abhishekk.twopirconsulting@gmail.com'];
        system.debug(conList);
        List<String> mail=new List<String>();
        for(Contact c:conList)
        {
            mail.add(c.Email);
        }
        Messaging.SingleEmailMessage msg1=new Messaging.SingleEmailMessage();
        msg1.setToAddresses(mail);
        msg1.setSubject(subject);
        msg1.setPlainTextBody(body);
        Messaging.Email[] emails=new Messaging.Email[]{msg1};
        Messaging.sendEmail(emails);
        insert accounts;
        Blob b = Attach;
        Attachment At = new Attachment(Name ='NewFile',body = b,ParentId=accounts.Id);
        insert At; 
        
        PageReference p=new PageReference('https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox');
        p.setRedirect(true);
        return p;

Hi Sir,

I tried your code, but it's giving me error as I am new to salesforce, So unable to fix it. Thanks for your reply.

Error is: Initial expression is of incorrect type, expected: Messaging.SingleEmailMessage but was: List<Messaging.Email>

//Messaging.sendEmail(new Messaging.SingleEmailMessage[] { emails});
Messaging.sendEmail(emails);
