boolean - Returns TRUE on success, PEAR_Error on failure.

Throws

Table 45-1. Possible PEAR_Error values

Error code	Error message	Reason	Solution
`NULL`	"File is not readable `file_name`"	The file was not found or the script has not enough rights to access the file.	Check the file name and path. Check user and file permissions.
`NULL`	"Could not open `file_name`"	The file is already opened and exclusivly locked by another application.	In the most cases a programm opens the file for writing. addAttachment() does no file locking, so this problem is not caused by competitve callings of this function.

Note
