i am trying to use mailx utility on red hat. I am unsuccessful in doing it. kindly see below for the steps i am doing :-
Code:
1) mailx -s "testing" user@ipaddress
2) when i check my /var/mail/ folder
there is no file being generated by the name user, instead there is a file being generated by the name of aap.
3) as per me, my syntax is correct. but i am unable to find why the file is not being generated by the name of user
I'm having the same issue even after trying with the suggested method. It is creating the filename with os user in the source system instead of receipient user in /usr/mail folder and I'm not getting mail at user@domain address.

The mail file on the source system should be in text format and readable with say "cat" or of course with "mailx". Is the content or the file the mail you sent, or a bounce?
Any clues in your mail log?

install went well. i've registered my system, but i cant seem to yum install simple packages.
i can install some packages, but many others i cant. for instance, i cant do a:
yum install php
