magento the shipment email is not sent

Solution Works For Me

Go to -> Mage_Sales_Model_Order_Shipment and copy the file Api.php

Make a path like this in local folder app/code/local/Mage/Sales/Model/Order/Shipment

Edit Api.php 
In function Create comment the sendEmail function call

try { 
$transactionSave = Mage::getModel(’core/resource_transaction’) 
->addObject($shipment) 
->addObject($shipment->getOrder()) 
->save(); 
/*$shipment->sendEmail($email, ($includeComment ? $comment : ‘’));*/ 
} catch (Mage_Core_Exception $e) { 
$this->_fault(’data_invalid’, $e->getMessage()); 
} 
In function addTrack add function call sendEmail

try { 

$shipment->save(); 
$track->save(); 
$email=true; 
$shipment->sendEmail($email,’’); 
} catch (Mage_Core_Exception $e) { 
$this->_fault(’data_invalid’, $e->getMessage()); 
}

Now you Shipment Email will be send as usual email with tracking number

PHP Mailing by attaching a file

<?php
  $to = "some mail@mymail.com";
  $subject = "New Product Details";
  $message = "New product be find in attachment.";
  # Open a file
  $file = fopen( "product.txt", "r" );
  if( $file == false )
  {
     echo "Error in opening file";
     exit();
  }
  # Read the file into a variable
  $size = filesize("product.txt");
  $content = fread( $file, $size);
  # encode the data for safe transit
  # and insert \r\n after every 76 chars.
  $encoded_content = chunk_split( base64_encode($content));
 
  # Get a random 32 bit number using time() as seed.
  $num = md5( time() );
  # Define the main headers.
  $header = "From:admin@magento-works.com\r\n";
  $header .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
  $header .= "Content-Type: multipart/mixed; ";
  $header .= "boundary=$num\r\n";
  $header .= "--$num\r\n";
  # Define the message section
  $header .= "Content-Type: text/plain\r\n";
  $header .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding:8bit\r\n\n";
  $header .= "$message\r\n";
  $header .= "--$num\r\n";
  # Define the attachment section
  $header .= "Content-Type:  multipart/mixed; ";
  $header .= "name=\"test.txt\"\r\n";
  $header .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding:base64\r\n";
  $header .= "Content-Disposition:attachment; ";
  $header .= "filename=\"product.txt\"\r\n\n";
  $header .= "$encoded_content\r\n";
  $header .= "--$num--";
  # Send email now
  $retval = mail ( $to, $subject, "", $header );

  if( $retval == true )
   {
      echo "Message sent successfully...";
   }
   else
   {
      echo "Message could not be sent...";
   }
