I guess you don't send a MMS you are sending an email. That is different.

BTW: for MMS messages have a look here:
http://www.openmobilealliance.org/release_program/docs/CopyrightClick.asp?pck=MMS&file=V1_2-20050429-A/OMA-MMS-ENC-V1_2-20050301-A.pdf

To your problem with sending emails with attachments:
- try to send this email to your normal email application like Thunderbird and have a look
whether it works there or not
- remember you have to close the last attachment with --$boundary-- not just --$boundary
