Here is my attempt to add a section to embed the picture in the body of the email. Unfortunately, it does not work.
The email arrives with the raw base64 data displayed. 
##############################################################
# Embed JPG image in email body.
# Note: This does NOT work.
##############################################################
$smtp->datasend("MIME-Version: 1.0\n");
$smtp->datasend("Content-Type: text/html; boundary=$boundary\n");
$smtp->datasend("Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\n");
$smtp->datasend("Content-Disposition: inline\n");
$smtp->datasend("\n");
$smtp->datasend("<body><img alt=\"My Picture\" img src=\"");
open(my $fh2, '<', $pic) || die("Could not open Jpg file!");
   binmode($fh2);
   local $/=undef;
   while (read($fh2, my $chunk, 72*57)) {
      my $buf = &encode_base64( $chunk );
      $smtp->datasend($buf);
   }
close($fh2);
$smtp->datasend("\"></body>");
