problem with mailx
Hi unix lovers,

I have some problem with using mailx. I want to send mail as per the instructions in a file. The mail does not reach to CC recepients.

To get a clearer picture, this is what I am typing on unix prompt.

$
$ mailx ashishp@suntech.com < mail.txt
$

And my mail.txt looks as below

$ cat mail.txt
~s testing
~c 'vganta@suntech.com,ajaygo@suntech.com'
This is just testing
$

I am using solaris.
$ uname -a
SunOS snvi003 5.8 Generic_117350-20 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V240
$

I have checked with the man pages but could not find any useful info.

Any pointers would help.

thanks in advance..

-Ashish
