How can I achieve this ?

Answer 1

The code which is used to set attchment with mail.

$storeId = Mage::app()->getStore()->getId();

$translate = Mage::getSingleton('core/translate');
$transactionalEmail = Mage::getModel('core/email_template');
$filepath = COMPLETE_PATH_UPLOADED_FILE; 
if(file_exists($filepath)
{
$transactionalEmail->getMail()
                ->createAttachment(
        file_get_contents($filepath),
        Zend_Mime::TYPE_OCTETSTREAM,
        Zend_Mime::DISPOSITION_ATTACHMENT,
        Zend_Mime::ENCODING_BASE64,
        basename($uploadfilename)
    );
}
$transactionalEmail->sendTransactional($templateId, $sender, OTHER_VARIABLES, $storeId);
$translate->setTranslateInline(true);
