Take a look at <ftp://ftp.visi.com/users/grante/stuff/mfetch.py>.

There's a class called SmtpWriter that has a "Message" method
that probably does what you want...

def Message(self,sender="", subject="", recipients=[], body="", attachments=[]):
    if self.__debugLevel > 2:
        sys.stderr.write("SmtpWriter: Building RFC822 message From: %s; Subject: %s; (Length=%d with %d attachments)\n" % 
                          (sender, subject, len(body),len(attachments)))
[...]

The MimeWriter library module is where most of the magic
happens...
