mail [<address>]

This command just runs an external mailer. The default mailer is
MAIL.EXE, but if the environmental variable MAILER is set, you
can use your favorite mailer (provided it can run in the memory
available and take an address from the command line - optional
for this command, but the same mailer will be used for Mailto:
links where it's a must).
Mail can write mail text and build the files to send it out on
the next mail kick. Alternatively, a file can be sent, encoded
with MIME if it has anything other than a .txt extn.
You could, of course, rename another mailer to MAIL.EXE.

This command uses the shell function and the returned error codes
are detailed there. It is advisable to read the Shell text.

>> Examples:  mail
              mail yan@ukgateway.net
