Okay, major progress.  I put (load "mime-setup") in my .emacs
file, and sent a small .gif to myself, successfully using C-c C-x
TAB to insert the file.  But when the email message was
delivered, and I tried to enter the summary buffer, I got the
follow error message in the mini-buffer below:

Invalid coding system: ctext      

I had to kill emacs, comment out the (load "mime-setup") in order
to read the file, which I was then able to do no problem.  So,
currently I have to manually modify .emacs to insert attachments,
and modify it again to read them.  I'm missing something...
