Yes, it relies on MTA (and I thought that ssmtp is good default for
Cygwin) since original mailx does the same. Althought one could simply
use netcat, but that brakes SMTP protocol and this behaviour is recently
becoming forbidden.

I forgot to mention in erlier post, that script is ksh and bash
compatibile, so there is more to choose :)
