Yes - calling 'xdg-email --attach <filename>' should be enough for

I looked at this a long time ago.  See this thread:

I was just beginning to study C at that time, so you should probably
ignore any code from me though ;)

[0] Except that thunderbird has a long-standing bug that causes it to
drop xdg-email attachments, but that is a separate issue.  Evolution
works perfectly the last time I checked.
