On Solaris you have quite a few options.

You can write shell scripts and call them from your procedures using HOST command.

The procedure we followed is:

Crontab starts the job and spools the output to a file. The next shell scripts check the output file and knows if it needs to send an email. Then it calls the email script otherwise just bypasses email altogether.
If an email needs to be sent the third script runs a character mode report of the data we want and sends the output of that report using sendmail.

It worked out very well. One of the project leads was a good AWK programmer.
