mailx -s not sending the file to mail address

Hi All,

OS:Red Hat Linux 4 86x64

Below is my shell script which is not sending mail to the mail recipient:

Code:
#!/bin/bash
export MAILLIST="xyz@yahoo.com"
cd <path_to_the_script_perf_report.sql>
sqlplus / as sysdba @perf_report.sql
if [ `cat /<path_to_the_script/*MONTHLY*REPORT*.lst|wc -l` -gt 0 ]
then
  cat <path_to_the_script/*MONTHLY*REPORT*.lst > /<path_to_the_script/ perf_report.out
  mailx -s "Perf Report Output" $MAILLIST < /<path_to_the_script/ perf_report.out
fi

Note:perf_report.sql generates a spool file -> *MONTHLY*REPORT*.lst

What's wrong in the above script?

Thanks for your time in helping!

Regards,

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 -m: Full path to mail file -r: Relayhost IP address (defaults to 127.0.0.1) -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. AUTHORS
This manual page was written by the following persons: Soren Boll Overgaard <boll@debian.org> (based on html2man output) Mads Martin Jorgensen <mmj@mmj.dk> mlmmj-send September 2004 mlmmj-send(1)
