Public bug reported:

mail discards STDIN when using -A to attach a file. For example:

echo "My message body." | mail -s "Hello!" -A /some/data
someb...@example.com

The file /some/data is attached, but the message body is discarded.

This is at least broken on 18.04.

Debian has fixed this bug and it has been fixed upstream. I expect their
patch can be used:
