problem in linux ubuntu 10.10 about mail command

Hi,

My question is that is there any substitute command for mail in ubuntu because I'm trying to run it and it is showing error: command not found!!

Will it need to download any specific package? If so please tell me how can I download that pkg.

Thanks in advance.
