try

/* new changes for mail.winreo.net server */
System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail.SmtpServer = UNI.Core.ConfigurationManager.GetApplicationSetting("EmailManager.MailServer");
string from = Core.ConfigurationManager.GetApplicationSetting("EmailManager.SenderAddress");
System.Web.Mail.MailMessage webmessage = new System.Web.Mail.MailMessage();
webmessage.From = string.Format("REOU<{0}>", from);
webmessage.To = message.To.ToString();
webmessage.Subject = message.Subject.ToString();
webmessage.Body = message.Body;

You will need to specify which one of the attachments you are using ... e.g. [0] at the end
