Here you go:
1. The first action is:"Ask for Finder Items"
The "type" is set to "file and folders" and the start at is set to "whatever folder you save your ringtones in"
I have the prompt say "Choose a folder" and i have allow multiple selections checked
2. That action goes into the action "Get Folder Contents"
3. That action goes into the action "New Mail Message"
I have the "to:" set to the gmail account i setup just for sending ringtones to. In the subject line it says "insert subject" so that way when the new email pops up you can enter something like "family guy tones" so you can search the gmail box later for those tones.
4. That action goes into the action "Send Outgoing Messages"
5. That action goes into the action "Ask for Confirmation"
I have the action ask "Run Mail Ringtones Again?" and the buttons say "No, Quit" and "Yes" which automatically quits the process after the email has been sent OR runs the script again so i can send another email
6. In order for the the script to run again you have to save it after step 5 and then open it again and choose the action "Run Workflow" and choose the workflow that you just saved.
So in all there is 6 actions in the workflow. I parked this action in my dock and titled it "Mail Ringtones". Now if I ever make a bunch of ringtones i save them in folders by category and then i can mail those to my gmail account to be downloaded through the BB web browser. So my gmail inbox has many emails with the subject being whatever the ringtones are ie. Family guy tones, TV tones, Sound effect tones and so on.
