Now I find myself wanting to send email from a new stack I'm working on.
I could just drag that library out again, but I suspect that a more
modern way is to use tsNet.

AFAICT tsNet handles the protocol of communicating with the server to
transmit a message (i.e. the SMTP part), but doesn't offer any
assistance with putting the message together (formatting with
attachments etc).

What do modern people use for this? Obviously I could rip the relevant
parts out of libSMTP; or I recall that Sarah Reichelt had a library; is
there a default answer among those who've sent email in the last ten years?

As part of the LiveCode for FM project, Monte has been developing a MIME library for constructing e-mail bodies. We plan to include it in LiveCode 9. But you can grab it ahead of time here:
