Confirmed (sorry, I should have actually tried it before replying the
first time). The MAIL command has a parsing error that prevents it from
executing.
We'll fix this in the next release, but as Mark points out SEND /MAIL
(which is another way of doing the same thing) works, and can be used in
the meantime. By the way, note that the new Kermit versions also let
you specify a subject for the mail:
send /mail:W.Schorstein@t-online.de /subject:{Testing 1 2 3} mail.txt
