I highly recommend smtpclient. It is very quick and reliable.

If I remember correctly, the POSIXness mail script is the only part of a
stock LEAF system to use netcat (nc), which is quite powerful, and thus
potentially dangerous. Switching from POSIXness mail to smtpclient
allowed me to drop netcat, which I considered A Good Thing.
