Scott,
This was not possible with the current code, because we need to handle binary attachments in a special way. The good news is that we were going to fix this soon, in part to make it possible to send dynamically generated PDF files as attachement.
I checked in a small change that allows this to work, if you want to give it a try. This is not necessarily the final code though.
I also attach an XPL file making use of this funtionality. The new thing is that if you set a content-type on a part which is not "text/*", the content of the part must be Base64-encoded data. Here, I just generate such data with the URL generator from a file on disk.
The result is that an email with an attached JPEG images is sent.

Is it possible to construct an email message with a binary attachment (specifically an Excel file) in the email processor? If so, anyone have any pointers on how to do it? I would guess there's a way to encode the binary stream and specify the MIME-type, but I'm not familiar with how to construct MIME messages. Any pointers/references appreciated. Thanks.
