Just to elaborate - I need to build this functionality. There is a Visualforce page with the following fields -

a) Sender email address

b) eMail Subject

c) eMail Body

d) Button to open file open dialog box to allow the user to select attachments.

I have completed a, b and c. But I am not familiar how to d.
