Mutt is an e-mail client that for some reason many people don't know!
It's very powerful, especially when trying to send e-mail from command line with attachements, or similar requirements.
Here's a couple of useful commands I often use.
To send an e-mail with attachment (and no message body) use:
mutt -a attachment_filename -s "Subject goes here" user@domain.com < /dev/null
The above command will send the e-mail with the attachement and subject to user@domain.com. The redirect from /dev/null makes sure there is no message body.
If you want to send an HTML e-mail you can use:
mutt -e "my_hdr Content-Type: text/html" -s "Subject" user@domain.com < msg.html
The above command sends an HTML e-mail to user@domain.com, using msg.html as the input file. The -e parameter allows you to change the content type. You can also put this in your .muttrc if you use it often.
