I do HTML emails regularly, using tmail.  They, however, are simple straight 
HTML mails and not multipart/MIME.

That would be _fantastic_.  I would use such a thing quite often.  I never 
did find anything like that, however, when I was doing my checking.  I 
strongly encourage you to continue on your hacking down this path, as you 
have one eager user awaiting your results already!
