Tried that but i was unable to specify the FROM address.
However i found a solution.
It can be done by telnet ing to smtp on port 25

Try this by using sendmail,

Code:
FROM=test@gmail.com
MailTo=temp@gmail.com
SUBJECT="Test Mail"
CONTENT="Test"
(
 echo "Subject: $SUBJECT"
 echo "From: $FROM"
 echo "To: $MailTo"
 echo "Content-Type: text/html"
 cat $CONTENT
) | /usr/lib/sendmail "$MailTo"
