Great script that you so much

I'm trying to also embed an image to the email with no luck and wondering if you can help me, here is KSH i'm using:

Code:

export MAILTO=myemail@me.com
export FROM="me@me.com"
export SUBJECT="Test"
export BODY="index_image.htm"
ATTACH=$1
export ATTACH1="WirelessEmail1.jpg"
(
echo "To: $MAILTO"
echo "FROM: $FROM"
echo "Subject: $SUBJECT"
echo "MIME-Version: 1.0"
echo 'Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="-q1w2e3r4t5"'
echo
echo '---q1w2e3r4t5'
echo "Content-Type: text/html"
echo "Content-Disposition: inline"
cat $BODY
echo '---q1w2e3r4t5'
echo 'Content-Type: image/jpeg; filename="WirelessEmail1.jpg"'
echo "Content-Disposition: inline"
echo "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64"
echo "Content-ID: <myimage.jpg>"
echo '---q1w2e3r4t5'
echo 'Content-Type: application; name="'$(basename $ATTACH)'"'
echo "Content-Transfer-Encoding: uuencode"
echo 'Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="'$(basename $ATTACH)'"'
echo '---q1w2e3r4t5--'
uuencode $ATTACH $(basename $ATTACH)
) | /usr/sbin/sendmail $MAILTO

I do receive an email with attached PDF but the image does not show in HTML body, the following shows up between the HTML body and the attached PDF file:
Content-Type: image/jpeg; filename="WirelessEmail1.jpg" Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64

I tried Google and other posts on this site but couldn't figure out how to embed this image, any help would be appreciated, thank you
