Failure of sending mail through sun solaris
Hi Friends,
I tried to mail from my sun solaris 5.8 by: $mailx -v sridha_151086@yahoo.co.in Subject: Test mail This is the test mail!! . EOT The error message I got is: land% Sri... forward: /export/home/Sri/.forward.+: World writable directory Sri... forward: /export/home/Sri/.forward+: World writable directory Sri... forward: /export/home/Sri/.forward.: World writable directory Sri... forward: /export/home/Sri/.forward: World writable directory /export/home/Sri/dead.letter... Saved message in /export/home/Sri/dead.letter Could you please tell me what the error could be? |

It says quite plainly that the problem is that your home directory is world writable. (I don't think that necessarily explains why you can't send mail, but you should fix it.)
