But the system is not designed that way, and fighting the design is not 
easy.

There are many commands and daemons in Linux that rely on having a local 
mail server; for instance, using the command "sendmail", be it from the 
real sendmail, or from anything else that provides a sendmail binary.

Anyway... mail (= mailx = nail) has a long man page, and it does support 
smtp. There is a "smtp-use-starttls" binary option mentioned. I can't say 
how you have to combine all those variables to get it working, because I 
have never used "mail" in that way. maybe they have a mail help list, I 
dunno.
