Emacs, of course ;-)

feedmail is part of the Emacs distribution, but it needs a patch to 
support Blat.

Blat is a public-domain command-line mailer which you can download from

    http://www.interlog.com/~tcharron/blat.html

(hmm... I see there's a new version there ;-).  Blat runs on Windows, so 
this setup only works on Windows, not on plain DOS.

You need between 95 and 130MB, depending on whether you build with or 
without Leim (Leim is a library of input methods which allows you to type 
text in languages your keyboard doesn't support directly).

Don't hold your breath: Korean characters can only be seen on Korean 
DOS/Windows systems.
