What scripting language, and what environment? Under UNIX / Linux there's
several options:

1) Call mail or mutt directly.
2) Use Perl to send a mail using "sendmail -t".
3) Use a Perl module Mail::Sendmail to send mail.

Depending on what you're looking to do, any one of these will work.

Hope this helps!
