Is there a way to include the result of check_nagios in the subject line of an e-mail?

I have a Cron job running every two hours that runs check_nagios and
e-mails us the result.  Here's the command I'm using:

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nagios -F
/usr/local/nagios/var/status.log -e 5 -C /usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios |
mail -s"Nagios Status check (heartbeat)" email at domain.com

The command e-mails the check_nagios output as the e-mail body.  Is
there a way to put it in the subject line instead?  I cannot figure it
out.  I don't think mail will let me do what I want.  Is there something
else I can use?  I'm using RedHat 9.
