You can send mail using sendmail without having to configure Postfix or
Sendmail.
Out of the box OS X can use sendmail to send messages. You can test it by

echo “Subject: Email from OX“ | /usr/sbin/sendmail email@hidden
(You’ll have to actually include more email headers so it has less chance
of being marked as spam)
