The workaround is to use a correct email address to send from. Your local mailx may have some option to control that, or (better) you should configure the system defaults so they actually make sense. If the box is not set up to receive mail then you probably want to configure it to use an address somewhere else (ideally, one which you own and which you read regularly).
