Nisar,
when you add the attachment are you sure the content-transfer-encoding is set to base64?

It uses sendmail, does attachments. Its production code, I use it all over the place.

Re: ELM sendmail

Create a file "excelformat" containing
[include test.xls application/msexcel base64]

Then try sending it using
# elm -s "Test" xyz@abc.com < excelformat
