Error during command authentication.

Error - unable to initiate communication with LISTSERV (errno=10061, phase=CONNECT, target=127.0.0.1:2306). The server is probably not started. LISTSERV - MACSCRPT Archives - LISTSERV.DARTMOUTH.EDU

I have a Filemaker script that includes an Applescript to send mail  
to an address in a field of a record. Used by several people, most of  
whom use Apple Mail, but there are some oddballs using Thunderbird or  
old Eudora.

I know I can use the Filemaker "Send Mail" to utilize the user's  
default mail client, or  code for a new message via Applescript with

set mailto to "mailto:" & eAddress
open location mailto

Is there a generic way to add an attachment?
