Good.

Yeah. So you could not even send to just MIM::BQT from GLGMSH?

Yeah. It defaulted to send, since there is no mail reader. Which I
decided was wrong. Try the command "SEND" instead, which does just the
mail sending.
(It can also take two arguments: 1) A short text, and 2) an address, at
which point it will just immediately send that short text.)
