              accounIds.add(ac.Id);
    }

for(Contact mContact : [Select Id, Email from Contact where Id in : accountIds])
   {
   if(mContact.Email != null)
     {
        Messaging.SingleEmailMessage mail = new Messaging.SingleEmailMessage();
        String[] toAddresses = new String[]{mContact.Email};
        mail.setToAddresses(toAddresses);
        //other mail settings like mail.setReplyTo, mail.setSubject, etc.
        //get file attachments
        List<Messaging.Emailfileattachment> fileEmailAttachments = new List<Messaging.Emailfileattachment>();
        for (Attachment attach : [select Name, Body, BodyLength from Attachment where ParentId = :mContact.Id])
        {
          Messaging.Emailfileattachment aff = new Messaging.Emailfileattachment();
          aff.setFileName(attach.Name);
