Sorry Eli, replied directly to you by mistake...

Ok, this works but I knew it won't be that easy. I think feedmail now 
executes /bin/mail (which I dont have). I want to set up this to another 
commandline-mailer. The problem is I know nothing about ELisp (shame on 
me). What do I have to do in this section:

(defun feedmail-buffer-to-binmail (prepped errors-to addr-listoid)
  "Function which actually calls /bin/mail as a subprocess.
  Feeds the buffer to it."
  (set-buffer prepped)
  (apply
  'call-process-region
  (append (list (point-min) (point-max) shell-file-name nil errors-to nil 
shell-      command-switch
		(format feedmail-binmail-template
			(mapconcat 'identity addr-listoid " "))))))

I know it's bad I'm not doing the homework myself but I'm really too lazy 
to get used to ELisp just for setting up this Mail stuff. I tried some 
things but with no success.

Sorry to bother you again,
Martin
