If you don't mind PERL being installed on the machine (it probably 
already is on there), you could use something like the script provided 
at http://www.logix.cz/michal/devel/smtp/index.xp?show_selected=1&msgid=31

The script itself is here:
http://www.logix.cz/michal/devel/smtp/smtp-client.pl

Your command then would be something like:
"| /path/to/smtp-client.pl --host=your.smtp.host 
--from=YourFriendlyBackupServer --to=%n "

 From a quick glance I did not see if/how the subject line can be set.

Is this what you are looking for?

Stefan
