Sounds like the manual page needs some work.  Sorry 'bout that.  Add
the following two lines to your .mh_profile:

        send: -attach X-MH-Attachment
        whatnow: -attach X-MH-Attachment

Then it will work.  The reason for this is that I did not want to hardwire
the attachment field name into the code because of the potential to conflict
with something else.
