I just use mutt for this.  This command line (all on one line) will
generate a message with a message body of "Here's this month's
report", attach the report as a mime attachment, and send the message
to the report-list mailing list.

    $ echo "Here's this month's report" | \
      mutt -s "Monthly report" -a monthly-report.gnumeric \
      report-list at hq.bigco.com
