'msmtp' is a lightweight and simple option for sending messages to remote smtp 
servers from shell scripts. with a variable (e.g. "$mailcmd") it can be used as 
drop in replacement for mailx.

msmtp works well for these type of things.  

Beware though as the package includes an apparmor profile which can cause 
problems

if you don't use the defaults.



Don't ask me how I know this.
