Perhaps it would be good to have a list of different attachements. For
example:
- Text: Include it directly in the e-mail. If it has more formating
there are other options like html, tex, rtf, odt, ...
- Audio: Use ogg vorbis, or if you need a better quality flac.
- Images: ...
Beside that I like the text.
Best wishes,
Matthias
