Using Mail (or any other email client) is a lousy solution for exactly the reason you describe. If you want to send emails from your application, there are various open-source email frameworks that'll let you do that directly; off the top of my head:

http://www.theronge.com/mailcore
http://www.mulle-kybernetik.com/software/EDFrameworks

Or, you might consider switching to some other mechanism, e.g. HTTP[S] POST.
