Not sure if you're asking for recommendations or just complaining about mail programs, but...

Do you have a mail program installed? What are you using to write your mails to this list? 
Just use that to send the movie. If you're just using sendmail and that's the problem, are 
you running a windowing envrionment? If so, kde and gnome come with mail clients, I 
believe. Also, thunderbird is a good mail program from the mozilla folks. If you're not 
running a windowing environment, pine and mutt are command line mail programs that both do 
attachments (and how to do so is clearly indicated in the man page).
