On some Unix systems, I use:
http://www.reedmedia.net/misc/mail/mailx.sh
http://www.reedmedia.net/misc/mail/mailx.sh.1
# This is a shell script to emulate the standard mail(1) aka mailx(1)
# aka Mail(1) tool usage for sending emails. This shell script is not
# a client for checking or reading mail. Also, this version of mail
# does not touch any mail boxes.


Also, maybe http://nail.sourceforge.net/ will build and work under cygwin.
(It is an enhanced mail(1).)
