Off topic, but you can do tat from within whatnow and
potentially avoid some errors:

  What now? ls ~/Graphs/name*
  [ls output shown here, which you could grab with the mouse,
   or see below about readline]

  What now? a ~/Graphs/name.jpg

  What now? al
  name.jpg

(al)ist gives me the chance to see what I've attached
before sending.  I'm in the habit of always doing that,
esp. because I do things like:  a ~/Graphs/n*.jpg

When nmh is configured with readline, which is very likely
on Fedora:
At that second What now? prompt above, you could Ctrl-P
(assuming default emacs mode) to retrieve the "ls" command
and then edit it.
