A proper way to do this would be to use smtplib and email packages but as they are not included in the default Python for Series 60 release, here is a quick hack which does it, using only the base modules:

import os, rfc822, socket, time, whrandom

# parameters
orig = 'origname@orighost.org'
dest = 'destname@desthost.net'
server = '123.123.123.123' # SMTP server address for dest
subject = 'your image'
text = 'here you go...'
image = 'c:\\nokia\\images\\photo.jpg'
mimetype = 'image/jpeg'
domain = 'pynokia'

# send mail with image attached
filename = os.path.basename(image)
data = open(image, 'rb').read()
now = time.time()
date = rfc822.formatdate(now)
number = whrandom.randint(0, 0xffffff)
msgid = '<%X.%X@%s>' % (now, number, domain)
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
print 'connecting to SMTP server...'
s.connect((server, 25))
print 'sending headers...'
f = s.makefile()
assert f.readline().startswith('2')
print >>f, 'helo', domain
f.flush()
assert f.readline().startswith('2')
print >>f, 'mail from:', orig
f.flush()
assert f.readline().startswith('2')
print >>f, 'rcpt to:', dest
f.flush()
assert f.readline().startswith('2')
print >>f, 'data'
f.flush()
assert f.readline().startswith('3')
print >>f, 'Message-ID:', msgid
print >>f, 'Date:', date
print >>f, 'From:', orig
print >>f, 'MIME-Version: 1.0'
print >>f, 'To:', dest
print >>f, 'Subject:', subject
boundary = '------' + date.encode('hex')
print >>f, 'Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="%s"' % boundary
print >>f
print >>f, 'This is a multi-part message in MIME format.'
print >>f, '--' + boundary
print >>f, 'Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8'
print >>f
print >>f, text
print >>f, '--' + boundary
print >>f, 'Content-Type: %s; name="%s"' % (mimetype, filename)
print >>f, 'Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64'
print >>f, 'Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="%s"' % filename
print >>f
print 'sending data...'
print >>f, data.encode('base64')
print >>f, '--' + boundary + '--'
print >>f
print >>f, '.'
f.flush()
assert f.readline().startswith('2')
print >>f, 'quit'
f.flush()
s.close()
print '%d bytes image sent in %d s' % (len(data), time.time() - now)
