Raam,
It seems that the mail server didnt properly send the message. Can you provide the mail server and mail server config?. What about sending to other email providers does it work? maybe its the mail server is preventing your outgoing mails or your firewall is preventing your mail server to communicate with public mail servers.
Mailx is just a plain mail client, Im recommending you to check the settings / configs and network connection of your mail servers.
Cheers
