I'm reading a book on "Linux Sendmail Administration." I haven't finished it yet, but I might advise you to find something similar if you're in a hurry to find an answer.

From the mailto man page:

       When you are done composing your message, you can cause it
       to be sent to the intended recipients by simply typing the
       end-of-file  character, typically CONTROL-D.  Depending on
       your option settings, you may also be  able  to  send  the
       mail by typing "." alone on a line, or by typing "~.".
