Mutt is the way.

Use whatever you have available. If you have sendmail, you can echo
email message and use sendmail.

You can connect to SMTP server and send email from command line by
using raw connection commands.

I am using GNU Mailutils' program `mail' so often, and I send emails
by using Emacs Lisp library and Common Lisp library for `mail':

Emacs Lisp: rcd-mail.el package as bindings to GNU Mailutils "mail" program

I have tried using mutt as batch in the same manner, I could maybe
rewrite it for mutt. Mutt does some things in batch mode better than
`mail' maybe some features are missing.
