to answer both of your posts
you don't need the -v flag, it's for more detailed output of linux mail command, and mailx in solaris
if you want it, use
echo bla | mailx -v emailaddress
>>It says... svcs: not found. What does this mean?<<
that means your shell could not find the svcs command in your path, set in PATH variable
your solaris is too old for svcs, or it's simply not in your path
check for sendmail in /etc/init.d
/etc/init.d/sendmail start

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
