Thanks for the hint that the toogle of 'inline' ./. 'attachment' is only
working for dialog mode usage of mutt;

I ended up with something like:

$ mutt -e 'set sendmail="cat"' -s test -a test.html test.jpg -- 
[email protected] < test.txt > mail.txt

and modified later the resulting file mail.txt by hand (or later with a
shell or perl script) before handing it over to the MTA sendmail;

on thing to mention is, that the Content-Disposition of 'inline' is not
enough; the image in addition needs as well some line like

    Content-ID: <test.jpg@whatever>

and the the reference in the HTML file must be accordinly as

    <img src="cid:test.jpg@whatever" />

Just for the records if someone later googles this thread...
