Create send.php file into root folder.

    require_once('app/Mage.php'); //Path to Magento
umask(0);
Mage::app();
            $html=" Write your Content Here

            ";
            $mail = Mage::getModel('core/email');
            $mail->setToName('Your Name');
            $mail->setToEmail('YoueEmail@gmail.com');
            $mail->setBody('Mail Text / Mail Content');
            $mail->setSubject('Mail Subject');
            $mail->setFromEmail('Sender Mail Id');
            $mail->setFromName("Msg to Show on Subject");
            $mail->setType('html');// You can use Html or text as Mail format
            $mail->setBodyHTML($html);  // your content or message

            if($mail->send()){
                echo 'Your request has been sent';
            } else {
               echo 'Unable to send.';
            }

You can add this script to your custom .php file and you can run it in browser.

require_once('app/Mage.php'); //Path to Magento
umask(0);
Mage::app();

$msg = "your message";
mail("someone@example.com","My subject",$msg);
