mailx error
When I try to send a mail thru mailx command, my mail isnt delivered to the destination.
When I type 'mail' from $HOME directory, I see the following error.
Final-Recipient: RFC822;
myname@company.com
Action: failed
Status: 5.1.2
Remote-MTA: DNS; mailhost.corp.company.com
Diagnostic-Code: SMTP; 550 Host unknown
I am using Solaris. I think some configuration for mailx is not done by sys admin. May I know what is that I am missing here, to make it work?

The email still goes through but i get the error.
If I use "mail" it goes thru without the error.
Any ideas?? (2 Replies)

Hi all,
When I tried to use mailx like mailx -s "test" someone@somedomain.com < myfile , mailx replies with "me": not a group. Mail did get sent though.
So how to deal with this "me": not a group response. I guess it is because some property was not set properly. Because mailx worked well... (0 Replies)

net::dns::sec::tools::dnssectools
dnssectools(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation dnssectools(3pm)
NAME
Net::DNS::SEC::Tools::dnssectools - General routines for the DNSSEC-Tools package.
SYNOPSIS
use Net::DNS::SEC::Tools::dnssectools;
dt_adminmail($subject,$msgbody,$recipient);
$zspath = dt_cmdpath('zonesigner');
$ftype = dt_findtype($path);
DESCRIPTION
The dnssectools module provides a general set of methods for use with DNSSEC-Tools utilities.
INTERFACES
The interfaces to the dnssectools module are given below.
dt_adminmail(subject,msgbody,recipient)
This routine emails a message to the administrative user listed in the DNSSEC-Tools configuration file.
dt_adminmail() requires two parameters, both scalars. The subject parameter is the subject for the mail message. The msgbody
parameter is the body of the mail message.
A third parameter, recipient, may be given to specify the message's recipient. If this is not given, then the recipient will be taken
from the admin-email record of the DNSSEC-Tools configuration file. If recipient is "nomail", then no message will be sent and success
will be returned.
Return values:
1 - the message was created and sent.
0 - an invalid recipient was specified.
It relies on the the following dnssec-tools.conf configuration parameters:
admin-email
The email address that the mail should come from.
mailer-type
Should be one of: sendmail, smtp, qmail. This option is not required and will default to trying sendmail and qmail to deliever the
mail. If mailer-server is set to a defined value but mailer-type is not, then mailer-type will default to
mailer-server
The server, if admin-mail is set to smtp, that the mail should be delivered to.
dt_cmdpath(command)
This routine returns the path to a specified DNSSEC-Tools command. command should be the name only, without any leading directories.
The command name is checked to ensure that it is a valid DNSEC-Tools command,
Return values:
The absolute path to the command is returned if the command
is valid.
Null is returned if the command is not valid.
dt_filetype(path)
This routine returns the type of the file named in path. The rollrec and keyrec records contained therein are counted and a type
determination is made.
Return values:
"keyrec" - At least one keyrec record was found and no
rollrec records were found.
"rollrec" - At least one rollrec record was found and
no keyrec records were found.
"mixed" - At least one rollrec record and at least one
keyrec record were found.
This is most likely an erroneous file.
"unknown" - No rollrec records nor keyrec records
were found.
"nofile" - The specified file does not exist.
