Well, that's not really what I suggested.  I suggested that msec include 
a very simple and incomplete MUA capable of sending mail via SMTP to 
some designated MTA.  That's more like embedding sendmail-command 
functionality into msec.  I say "simple and incomplete" because:

1) there would be no capability to read mail
2) the code to send mail needs to be only as robust as msec requires
