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?

Unknown command: "postmaster"
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.

used to build and send an email message. In the filter mode, calibre-smtp reads a complete email message from STDIN and sends it.
text is the body of the email message. If text is not specified, a complete email message is read from STDIN. from is the email address
of the sender and to is the email address of the recipient. When a complete email is read from STDIN, from and to are only used in the SMTP
negotiation, the message headers are not modified.
Whenever you pass arguments to calibre-smtp that have spaces in them, enclose the arguments in quotation marks.
