Had a similar idea.
Wanted to get my vpn keys onto an i-product without A) going over the net and without B) installing itunes.
So I first tried hosting the file on a local webserver, but apple treated it as a text file and displayed it in the browser.
Then I wrote a pop server on android to deliver a client.ovpn file as a mime attachment in an email. Worked wonderfully and thought about extending it to deliver photos from my phone to others' i-products.

I know for a fact that you can serve .mobileconfig files to Safari iOS, which will open them as config files if the mimetype is set correctly. I'm sorry but the idea of using email servers for file exchange, in 2017, is ridiculous.
