>From a term prompt:

[jack at localhost]$ echo -e "See attached file.\rHave a great day!\r" |
mutt -s "Latest release" -a file.tar.gz joe at domain.org

This sends an e-mail with subject "Latest release".  The body, "See
attached...", is piped and a gzip'ed file is attached (i.e. mutt does
it all).

I'm looking at the command line options for evolution and they seem to be ways of invoking the GUI from the command line with some options.
