A quick hack is to create shell script that will use sendmail (or qmail or
whatever) to send a message.  Then, you shell out with exec from Java or
something to run it.  You can get tricky by writing out a file to use as the
body or attachments.  It isn't the nicest way to do it, by far.  But, it's
easy.  And if you don't need it to be too fancy, you'll have it done in
quick order.

If you find a nice way of doing it, and the time, I don't suggest using this
method.  This method is only good if you need a quick solution.
