Java Errors in postfix configuration on solaris 10

Hi Geeks,

I am trying to configure 'postfix' for sending mail only instead of 'sendmail'.
I am getting following error when I try to send mail using mailx command.

Code:
#echo "test" | mailx -s "test mail" <username> -- command executed from server

--/var/log/syslog output :

Code:
Jul  8 12:55:44 servername sendmail[28108]: [ID 801593 mail.info] o68Atiht028108: from=sender, size=80, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<201007081055.o68Atiht028108@<servername>>, relay=root@localhost

Kindly help me in this regard.

Thanks in Advance,

Abhi Smilie
