Operating Systems Solaris Mailx message not delivering externally Post 302928859 by jim mcnamara on Monday 15th of December 2014 03:41:33 PM

Do you have a google gmail account? Then you have to connect via http to google and send your email. I think that this is possible with lynx or wget. I do not know for sure. Otherwise, you have to start sendmail on your own server and turn your box into a mail server.

-- assuming I understand what you are trying to do. google's mail servers require logon credentials. Otherwise you could spoof them as the source of your email. Or spam.

NAME
rcvpack - append message to file SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/mh/rcvpack file [-mbox] [-mmdf] [-version] [-help] DESCRIPTION
The rcvpack program will append a copy of the message to the file listed on its command line. If the -mbox switch is given (the default), then the messages are separated using mbox (uucp) style delimiters. This is the format used by most mail clients (elm, mailx, etc.). If the -mmdf switch is given, then the messages are separated by mmdf style delimiters. Each message in the file is separated by four CTRL-A's and a newline. rcvpack will correctly lock and unlock the file to serialize access to the file, when running multiple copies of rcvpack . In general, its use is obsoleted by the file action of slocal, although it might still have occasional uses in various shell scripts. FILES
/etc/nmh/mts.conf nmh mts configuration file SEE ALSO
rcvdist(1), rcvstore(1), rcvtty(1), slocal(1) BUGS
Only two return codes are meaningful, others should be. MH.6.8 11 June 2012 RCVPACK(1)
