In hopes of using pine for mass mailing in as automated a way as
possible, is there a way to supply subject on the command line?  Here is a
sample command:

pine -attach xxx.html -signature-file=xxx/file1 harry@imcs,john@aesop

We're looking for some way to imitate the

mailx -s"this goes on subject line" harry@imcs <xxx/file1

ability.

Yes. Use the -url mailto:address@domain?subject=blah syntax.

This precludes the use of input redirection and -attach so too bad.

In any case, you will need to apply the "Send from command-line" patch
by Eduardo Chappa. You can pick it up from his page at
http://www.math.washington.edu/~chappa/pine/

Please use proper sig-dashes. "-- " is the sequence you want (leave out
the quotes, leave in the space).
