Data Unix email facility

Dear all,

I am an inexperienced man with Macitosh and green in Apple OS X . I had tried very hard to use Unix, in fact the Terminal, with its Email function.

I read some books and came to know that it has Mail, mailx or mail functions that we can use for simple mail. I have try every effort yet could not get it works.

Is there any one could offer me a help.
Many thanks.
