Subject: /bin/mail anyone?

I am looking for a minimalistic user mail agent that will just
impersonate sendmail for Emacs and the like, ie. just read a message
on stdin and relay it to a real SMTP listener.  I need this because I
want to use Emacs as my mailer in the same way as I do on Unix, and
AFAIK Emacs doesn't know how to speak SMTP itself.  (Actually, there
are the smtpmail and feedmail packages, but how to integrate them into
mail mode?)

If nobody has a pointer/hint, I probably want it badly enough that
I'll eventually write one.

I also toyed with the idea of getting regular sendmail to build, but
the sendmail distribution contains a file aux.m4 :-(
