Worth reading the first section:
Subject: M1) What is the default Mailer on UnixWare?


The error messages you are receiving suggest to me that this server is configured for uucp mail. Messages mention "/usr/bin/uux" which is part of the original AT&T unix communications package. The address format includes exclamation marks.

The transport for uucp does not have to be TCP/IP . Recommend you find out what you have go before changing settings.
