'man sendmail' does not provide an example. I tried to guess on how to use it but so far got nowhere.
Ok, to send an email from the command line:
mail user@domain.com <enter>
(then below that you just type out the body of your email until your done. Make sure you have a new line, and then hit <control><d>.)
-s at the command line will allow you to enter a subject, put quotes around it, and make sure its before the email address.
Simple 'nuff
