[Bug 1013918] [NEW] 'mail' command provider priority

Public bug reported:

$ mail
The program 'mail' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:
sudo apt-get install mailutils

IMHO, in this case it should give alternatives or just select the "most
supported" package ('bsd-mailx' from 'main' instead of 'mailutils' from
'universe').
