sendmail by itself is a very simple mail submission agent. You need to give it a properly formatted mail message, and it will accept it into the queue, end of story.
Do you want to understand MIME, or just get this job done? In the latter case, there's a bunch of old MIME tools for this called metamail, but they are not very easy to use. Other people here have reported good success with using mutt from the command line for this. The following is just a quick demonstration of how to do it directly on the hot metal. Don't do this at home. Code:
cat <<'HERE' Subject: mail message Mime-version: 1.0 Content-type: multipart/related; boundary=foooooobar --foooooobar Body of message goes here --foooooobar Content-type: image/png; filename="icon.png" Content-transfer-encoding: base64 HERE mimencode file1 cat <<'HERE' --foooooobar Content-type: application/octet-stream; filename="worm.exe" Content-transfer-encoding: base64 HERE mimencode file2 echo echo '--foooooobar--'
