Try:
  SET email "remind at example.com"
  REM 22 Jul AT 10:00 RUN mail -s "Disable RT 4658" [email] </dev/null &

Note the double quotes and square brackets. Then read the EXPRESSIONS
and EXPRESSION PASTING sections of the man page, which explain both of
these changes quite clearly... ;)

Have fun...
Matt
