E' probabile che mail sia all'interno del pacchetto mailx che ho installato
nella mia Debian ... infatti quando lancio man mail appare:

MAIL(1) System Reference Manual MAIL(1)
NAME
mail - send and receive mail
SYNOPSIS
mail [-iInv] [-s subject] [-c cc-addr] [-b bcc-addr] to-addr...
mail [-iInNv] -f [name]
mail [-iInNv] [-u user]
INTRODUCTION
Mail is an intelligent mail processing system, which has a command
syntax reminiscent of ed(1) with lines replaced by messages.
-v Verbose mode. The details of delivery are displayed on the
user's terminal.
-i Ignore tty interrupt signals. This is particularly useful
when using mail on noisy phone lines.
-I Forces mail to run in interactive mode even when input isn't
a terminal. In particular, the `~' special character when
sending mail is only active in interactive mode.
-n Inhibits reading /etc/mail.rc upon startup.
-N Inhibits the initial display of message headers when reading
mail or editing a mail folder.
-s Specify subject on command line (only the first argument after
the -s flag is used as a subject; be careful to quote subjects
containing spaces.)
-c Send carbon copies to list of users.
-b Send blind carbon copies to list. List should be a comma-separated
list of names.
-f Read in the contents of your mbox (or the specified file) for
processing; when you quit, mail writes undeleted messages back
to this file.
-u Is equivalent to:
mail -f /var/spool/mail/user
[...]
Quindi e' solamente un MUA (Mail User Agent) e non sendmail, postfix, qmail,
smail, exim, masqmail, ... che invece sono dei MTA (Mail Tansport Agent)
.... :-) cioe' lavorano "dietro le quinte" proprio come dei daemon ....
