If you only want to send mails from the command line, you first have to set
up ssmtp (under /etc/ssmtp ... or something like that).
After that, you can send an email via
$ cat /path/to/mail.txt | mail -s <subject> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
or you can write a mail from command line via
$ mail -s <subject <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
write
your
text
.
(note the last '.' (dot) in the last line of the mail!)
If you can't find the program "mail", then you have to emerge "mailx".
