If you use mutt, then a command line in the style of:
$ echo "See attached" | mutt -s "The Subject Line" -a in.tar.gz myrecpt@domain.com
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...
