Yes, there absolutely is something you can do to help.

I think you're right that my poor WL syntax is most likely the problem.
All of the WL specific syntax is in the `org-mime-file' and
`org-mime-multipart' functions.  To start could you try replace the
'semi portion of the case statement in `org-mime-multipart' with the
following (I'd paste the whole function but it'd break my outgoing gnus
email) the syntax here is updated based on a function from
http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/WlFaq#toc10.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
('semi (concat
            "--" "<<alternative>>-{\n"
            "--" "[[text/plain]]\n" plain
            "--" "[[text/html]]\n"  html
            "--" "}-<<alternative>>\n"))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

That *should* fix the exportation of html portions w/o pictures, the WL
syntax in `org-mime-file' will need to be fixed for image attachments.

yes, hopefully once these are brought into line then org-mime will work
for WL as well as gnus.
