getting mailx error
Hi,
I was using SunOS 5.6. I have used the mailx command in below fashion
mailx -s"RE: WES 'ftp' alert...no HDR record" ushman@lucent.com
Last week only I upgraded the Operating System from SunOS 5.6 to SunOS5.9. But after upgrading the OS I am getting the following error.
The flags you gave are used only when sending mail.
Usage: mailx -eiIUdFntBNHvV~ -T FILE -u USER -h hops -r address
-s SUBJECT -f FILE users
Please some one help me out.

REPORTER-MAILX(1) LIBREPORT MANUAL REPORTER-MAILX(1)
NAME
reporter-mailx - Sends contents of a problem directory via email.
SYNOPSIS
reporter-mailx [-v] -d DIR [-c CONFFILE]
DESCRIPTION
The tool reads a problem directory, composes an email message from the directory contents, and uses mailx to send the message to specified
recipient.
Properties of email messages can be specified in a configuration file, and via environment variables.
Configuration file
Configuration file contains entries in a format "Option = Value".
The options are:
Subject
The subject of the email message.
EmailFrom
The sender of the email message.
EmailTo
The recipient of the email message.
SendBinaryData
Use yes/true/on/1 to attach all binary files from the problem directory to the email. This can cause the emails to be very large.
Integration with ABRT events
reporter-mailx can be used as a reporter, to allow users report problems via email when they decide to do it. This usage is pre-configured
in /etc/libreport/events.d/mailx_event.conf:
EVENT=report_Mailx reporter-mailx
It can also be used to notify administrator automatically when a problem happens. When this is desired, modify the event configuration file
to run the tool on the post-create event:
EVENT=post-create reporter-mailx
OPTIONS
-d DIR
Path to problem directory.
-c CONFFILE
Path to configuration file. When used in ABRT event system, the file contains site-wide configuration. Users can change the values via
environment variables.

Mailx_Subject
Subject of the email message.
Mailx_EmailFrom

"root@localhost".
