mutt in filepro and file permission

filePro 5.0.13 on SCO 6

I am trying to use mutt on a system line in filePro to send an email 
with a PDF attachment.  The PDF file is on a shared drive and is created 
by a windows program and it get;s the permission of the username that is 
logged into windows.  Even though the shared folder is owned by filePro, 
using a chmod on the system line will not change the permissions, and 
mutt will not pickup the file to attach. 

I need to change the permission on the PDF file, or perhaps do a script 
that filePro will call that will run mutt, keeping the same user name as 
who is logged in and using filePro to be the from name.  The PDF file is 
Not created by the user, but by a different filename and a program that 
runs on windows as that other user.

I hope that my ramblings are clear, and I accept all ideas graciously.

Happy New Year to All.

Scott
