If you are thinking of CMD (the DOS like command prompt) there are several solutions depending of how the email is about to be sent.

Sendmail is a program that you can use in shell if you send mail using a pop3/smpt server.

If you want to send mail using an exchange server, you can use mapisend which you can get from microsoft.

sending email is easy if you have programming tools like perl or python. They come with emailing modules you can use to send emails.
