sending email at the end of a script without Java

Hello!
I have written a script to set up the command sendmail, and it works flawlessly... When the Java machine is running.
In my setting, I usually connect via ssh to my office computer and launch heavy code to be computed, so I need a script that notifies me whenever the program stops running and the results are produced. At the same time, I can't stay linked to that computer for all the computing time it takes to finish running, so I need to launch a background Matlab instance (using screen) so that it doesn't get terminated when I log out.
aaand sendmail needs the java machine running, something I cannot have since I work on background.
Is there another command to achieve this?

i think it would also be possible to send an email programmatically via thunderbird using the command line

On Windows systems with Microsoft Outlook, you can send email directly through Outlook by accessing the COM server with actxserver.
