You could use the smtp.erl module found in 
yaws/application/mail/src/smtp.erl. The API is

send(Server, From, To, Subject, Message, Attached)

for example

% smtp:send("mail.bevemyr.com", "jb@REDACTED",
%          ["katrin@REDACTED","jb@REDACTED"],
%          "Test Subject",
%          "My Message", [{"file1.txt","text/plain","hej hopp igen"}]).

It connects to a SMTP server through a socket and sends the email.
