I belive built-in MIME support is on the todo-list for the next
development cycle.  In the meantime, maybe some of this will help you:

Personally I'm running TM with Gnus 5.6.3 on GNU Emacs 19.34, and it
gives me pretty good MIME support (if I had been running XEmacs, I
would have seen attached GIFs and JPEGs inline in the message.  I
tried that back with XEmacs 19.16 (I think), but it was too slow for
me).
