Kevin,
Back in 1994 I used UUENCODE/UUDECODE to send images (and other binary files)
via MailMan.  This was/is in MSM under MS-DOS. (I still have all that here 
on my laptop.) My routine wrote the mail message out to DOS and then shelled 
out to DOS to do the deed. (It was interesting in that MSM halted everything 
it was doing while the DOS UUENCODE routine did it's thing. :-)

I think I would do the same today in GT.M and let Linux do the dirty work.
