Sendmail? Mailx? SMTP?
We require e-mails to come from one of our Solaris 10 boxes ASAP and have found that when using such things as Sendmail and Mailx all the mail goes to a Q that only fires every 15 minutes. We have tried everything we could think of to adjust this to force the Q to go every 1 minute but so far no luck and I can not seem to find anything on the net about it.
So I was thinking of using our Groupwise mail gateway (SMTP) but I am not sure how I would send a e-mail from command line to such a thing?
Any help on any of this would be great.
Thank you

mlmmj-send
mlmmj-send(1) General Commands Manual mlmmj-send(1)
NAME
mlmmj-send - send mail to a mailinglist or similar
SYNOPSIS
mlmmj-send [-L /path/to/list | -l listctrl] -m /path/to/mail [-a] [-D] [-F] [-h] [-r] [-R] [-s] [-T] [-V]
-a: Don't archive the mail
-D: Don't delete the mail after it's sent
-F: What to use as MAIL FROM:
-h: This help
-l: List control variable.
-L: Full path to list directory

-R: What to use as Reply-To: header
-s: Subscribers file name
-T: What to use as RCPT TO:
-V: Print version
DESCRIPTION
This binary is used to send all kinds of mail to mlmmj managed mailinglists, but can potentially be used standalone for sending mails.
The only option that is not self explanatory is the -l list control option:
'1' means 'send a single mail'
This is used together with -F and -T to send one mail to one recipient.
'2' means 'mail to moderators'
Used for sending mails to the moderators of a list.
'3' means 'resend failed list mail'
'4' means 'send to file with recipients'
'5' means 'bounceprobe'
'6' means 'single listmail to single recipient'
BUGS
This manual page is very scarce documentation of the mlmmj-send binary. The reason for this is that it's really not supposed to be used by
any human, but only supposed to be invoked from other mlmmj binaries. So in case more documentation is needed, please read the source.
