TYPO3: Upload files to FAL with powermail

I am using powermail to allow a FE-User to edit a couple of fields of his own User-Record. Works fine, no hassle.

Now I would also like to allow the upload of a file. Is there a way to save the file to FAL with powermail? Unfortunately I have found no resources on this whatsoever. Maybe it is possible to implement a userfunc when saving to DB that would generate the required DB entries? When using powermails "upload"-field-type the file gets written to uploads/tx_powermail. I have access to that files path in my db_entry step in typoscript and could pass it on to a userfunc - which in return should

Am I missing something? Any ideas on this? Has anyone done something like this before?

Or is my only alternative to switch from powermail to a custom extbase extension?

System: TYPO3 7.6.16, Powermail 3.17

Thanks

I have same problems in powermail and i use powermail Finisher class like below.

TYPOSCRIPT:

plugin.tx_powermail.settings.setup {
    finishers {
        1 {
          class = Vendor\Ext\Finisher\AddImageFinisher
          config {
             # set pid.            
             pid = TEXT
             pid.value = 79 // Here

             #set powermail fields title
             field_name = Name
             field_place = Place
             field_email = E-Mail
             field_message = Message
          }
        }
    }
}

Please reffere this link. AddImageFinisher Class file

Just for the record. TYPO3 8 core ships a new form extension which allows both. With the save to database finisher you can easily edit fe_user data. Furthermore, all image uploads are handled as FAL. We will document this use case and release a small extension which does the job (soon).

At the moment powermail don't uses FAL relations. If you need something like this, you have to add an own finisher that does the upload stuff - see https://docs.typo3.org/typo3cms/extensions/powermail/ForDevelopers/AddFinisherClasses/Index.html
