Yes, we did look at MIME::Lite, although we didn't do anything as fancy as search the HTML for images. We just had a list of the images necessary, and did something like:
foreach $image (@htmlimages) {
$msg->attach(
Type => 'image/gif',
Id => $image,
Path => "./$image"
);
}
We had no trouble makeing HTML email with images, or email with attachments, or email with a text alternative, I simply couldn't find a way to combine all three.
The trick is the nesting a multipart/related inside a multipart/alternative inside a multipart/mixed message, while still having content parts outside the innermost section. If I had something like:
$msg->close(Type => multipart/related);
I could probably do it.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
