Mail is a fully functioning MUA (Mail User Agent).

If you have sendmail configured properly to send and receive mail on the
Internet, it will send mail anywhere, and receive mail sent from anywhere.

I have my own OBSD web/mailserver in-house, running over my ATT-DSL
account (has 5 static IP addresses):

http://robertwittig.net/workshop.html

...and it has been sending and receiving Internet mail for around 5
years without interruption.

If you have sendmail in its default configuration, then it will only
send email and messages on localhost.

The 'mail' MUA is pretty kludgy, so I almost never use it... only when I
am working on a server and really, really, really have to send someone
an email.

I have cron jobs set up on the server (up in my attic workshop), that
email me copies of all my logs, which I receive in my office (one floor
down) using Thunderbird.
