} 1. How can I send attachments (text is easy, but what about others???)

Go to CPAN and get Eryq's MIME modules.  You probably want to avoid
MIME::Light, since that assumes the presence of sendmail, but the
regular MIME modules test OK under MacPerl, and so I presume they will
work.  I've installed them but never actually used them though.

Apparently with MIME::Parser.

Much easier is just to connect to port 25 on the local machine and
talk SMTP with the server.  I hear good things about SIMS (Stalker
Internet Mail Server), which is freeware.  (But I don't run an SMTP
server under MacOS.)
