MailFile Extension

The purpose of this extension is to make possible to mail wiki file directly from the wiki.

Syntax/Usage

The syntax is as simple as using a template with two parameters, the first to be the wiki name of the file and the description. It quite resembles the well known [[Media:]] link syntax. 

Template:MailFile


The template takes care of everything else so that in the end one you get a link to the file itself and icon linked to the special page that actually sends the file to specific mail recipient.
