If you use mutt, then a command line in the style of:
    $ echo "See attached" | mutt -s "The Subject Line" -a in.tar.gz [EMAIL 
PROTECTED]
will do the trick.

As an alternative, you can mime-encode the contents "by hand" before
passing into a standard mail command (e.g. mail, or mailx). But I don't
know any of that stuff...
