If the goal is just to avoid an email client, at your command prompt
you can:
mail someone@??? << EOF
Here's your mail.
EOF
Or create a file with the headers and message body and say:
exim -t < your_file
The file might look like:
To: someone@???
From: you@???
Subject: test
Skip a space before starting the body.
