Install mutt. mutt can be used from the command line
to MIME-attach binary files with the "-a <filename>"
option.
Another option is to use "metamail," but I've found
mutt to be easier.
I'm sure there's a Perl MIME module (and SMTP module
and RFC822 module and...), but
system( "echo 'hello, body' | mutt -a q.gz -s 'sub ject' foo\@bar.xxx" );
is so irresistable.
