That might be sendmail, maybe... which doesn't provide mailx. So I'm not sure which third-party mailx you have.

The sendmail utility should work also:

Code:
sendmail "${TO}" <<EOF
To:  ${TO}
From:  ${FROM}
Subject:  ${SUBJECT}

${EMAIL_TEXT}
.
EOF

       define(`LOCAL_MAILER_ARGS', `sensible-mda $g $u $h ${client_addr}')dnl

       sensible-mda will look for the following MDAs (in this order), and pass the mail on to the first SUID MDA found (Or first found MDA, if run
       w/euid=root): procmail(1), maildrop(1), deliver(8), mail.local(8)

       from   The sender of this email (sendmail $g variable)

       to     The recipient of this email (sendmail $u variable)

       detail The detail portion of the recipient userid (sendmail $h variable) - ie:
	      cowboy+sendmail@debian.org

       client-addr
	      TCP/IP address of the sender (sendmail ${client_addr} variable) Not used (for the nonce)
