I had in the past similar problems using SMTP module.
I agreed that it is a problem of the module that doesn't keep care of
the MIME types of the attachments, so if you include only the message
body or 1 file, it works correctly. But if you include a file, the
module mixes the MIMEs so that mail clients cannot undestand where the
body finishes and the attachment begins.

The only solution I found to send a mail from Gambas is using an
external mail prog like mutt and a server mail like procmail or
similars.
