Sending E-mails
As usual with electronic mail, a message can be sent alone or with attachments.
The form you choose depends on the amount of data and the properties of the
E-mail recipient you are using. It is sometimes necessary to send E-mails with
attachments, for example to transfer binary-coded information from the controller
for evaluation.
