Sometimes I think it would be simpler to connect to localhost:25 and just send them with (e)smtp than use mail or sendmail! Of course, then you are connected to sendmail, but the options are open and the rules are pretty well understood.
A bonus would be to send them direct to the end host port 25, and skip local email overhead.

SYNOPSIS
calibre-smtp [options] [from to text]
DESCRIPTION
Send mail using the SMTP protocol. calibre-smtp has two modes of operation. In the compose mode you specify from to and text and these are
used to build and send an email message. In the filter mode, calibre-smtp reads a complete email message from STDIN and sends it.
text is the body of the email message. If text is not specified, a complete email message is read from STDIN. from is the email address
of the sender and to is the email address of the recipient. When a complete email is read from STDIN, from and to are only used in the SMTP
negotiation, the message headers are not modified.
Whenever you pass arguments to calibre-smtp that have spaces in them, enclose the arguments in quotation marks.
