Currently, our mail sending mechanisms fall into two categories:
either $DEBEMAIL or $EMAIL is set or they aren't.  For the former, one
of mutt, sendmail, or a direct smtp connection is used to send the
email.  For the latter, we use mail to generate a From address for us
and send the email.

If people consider it acceptable to require $DEBEMAIL or $EMAIL to be
set, then I have no problem removing our use of the mail command.
