Hello, I couldn't make the mail command (from mailutils package) send messages in a GUIX system.

That is what I get when trying to send a local message:

$ echo test | mail semente
mail: Cannot open mailer: No such file or directory
mail: cannot send message: No such file or directory

I have opensmtpd running.

Thanks,
semente
