[Rd] bug.report/mail

One of the functions I would like to clean out of my syskern package is a program to
send mail. This is a common feature other programs (e.g. bug.report) may use so I
would like it to be included in R/base. I will volunteer to do this as it looks like
a fairly straightforward dissection of bug.report but I have some questions:

Has anyone done this already?

Is "mail" a good name or would something like "Sys.mail" be better?

Should I generate a diff relative to something or just files for src/library/base/R?
