Mailx Email Issue
Hello,


I am facing an issue with email in Linux. I am using mailx command to send email.
When I give invalid domain address then it is taking both sender and recipient as sender email and trying to send email.
Below is my command


Code:
echo -e "${EMAIL_TEXT}" | mailx -v -s "${SUBJECT}" -r "${FROM}"  "${TO}" >$EMAIL_RESP

here FROM=testuser@gmail.com
TO=123415@atxtxde.cosdlfmsdogfsdkfc..ocmd

Below is the response


Code:
123415@atxtxde.cosdlfmsdogfsdkfc..ocmd... Invalid host name

220 xxxx ESMTP AT&T sendmail 8.14.5/8.14.5; Tue, 27 Nov 2018 09:25:55 -0800
