Then curl-library is probably the list for you. This list is for the curl
tool...

curl and libcurl supports SMTP fine but you need to provide the "body" of the
mail. In a case when you want to send an attachment, you need to properly
format such content. RFC2045 is a good start to understanding the mechanisms.
If you just look at a raw mail you've received with an attachment you will see
how it can look.
There are many tools and libraries out there already that can help you
generate a full MIME mail that can be sent.
If someone comes up with a decent example snippet, I wouldn't mind adding such
an example to the libcurl examples collection for future users!
