Thanks,

you were faster than me, I was already starting to devise some in shell 
script.

Aside of hacks, I *think* that it might make sense to have a non-hacked 
solution. As system administrators, we, at least I, send quite a number 
of items with mail (cronjobs).
Therefore, IMHVHO, a tool distributed with *nix or *fix (wrapping around 
mail) might be useful?
