That's really no different than using mail, aka mailx or even sendmail. It
does require another program ( mail and sendmail[1] ) are likely to be on
every *NIX box, but requiring a different application isn't that bad. Kinda
like using perl when sed and awk would do, except with perl there's the
thrill of wielding the swiss-army-club :).

[1] sendmail isn't necessarily the one from sendmail. exim and postfix both
provide sendmail executables for compatability.
