i'm not sure what the answer is in pine.  i've had real trouble with this too. 
what i do now is use mailx. from your unix prompt type mailx
[email-masked] and hit enter.  you're now in mailx mailing to the
address you typed. typing   ~r filename  will insert that file within the mail. 
this works good if your trying to send ascii text.  conrl-d mails the letter.

But, that puts the text of [file] into the body of the message; that does not
attach the file to the message. As it happens, <ctrl> r works the same way in
pine.

have you tried typing the name of the file in the "Attchmnt:" portion of
the header?
