UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users

Hi,
I just wanted send corbon copy in mailx command, could you please assist me?

I tried the below but it didn't work

cat sample.txt|mailx -s "hi" -c xyz@gmail.com abc@gmail.com

This should be fine - works for me

Check your maillog. For example, on one of my Solaris 10 boxes,

Code:

mailx -s "Testing" -c me@localhost me@somewhere-else.com < infile

produces the log excerpt:

... to=me@localhost,me@somewhere-else.com ...

as it's sent.

Can you see a similar line in your maillog (depending on your OS, this may be /var/log/syslog, /var/log/maillog, /var/log/mail.log - check your syslog configuration).

Does your mail make it to the primary recipient? Or doesn't it arrive at all? In that case, check your local MTA configuration.

Cheers

Thanks for your reply.

primary recipient is getting the mail, it doesn't show anything wrong. But mail is not going to -c <mail id>

to=xyz@gmail.com, ctladdr=bas (20020/10)

i can see the above line from the log.

SunOs 5.9 si the OS for me.
