If you're using BSD mail/mailx (default in Debian), then you can add
headers with -a:
cat test.html | mail -s "Test" -a "Content-type: text/html" user@???
Other versions of mailx treat -a as an option to add an attachment - but
they will auto-add appropriate MIME structure, with some content-guessing:
echo "" | mail -s "Test" -a test.html user@???
