Hi
A) I am able to send eMail using mailx from a UNIX ( solaris 8 ) host to my Outlook-email-ID :
FName.Surname@Citigroup.com ( This is NOT my actual -eMail-ID). But in Outlook the "From :" eMail address is displayed as
"
usr1@unix-host1.unregistered.email.citicorp.com " .i.e the words "
unregistered.email" seems like a mystery.
B) But when I try to send eMail from another UNIX host ( which has its User-accounts locally in /etc/passwd and /etc/group - i.e it NOT part of NIS/NIS+ ; but its on the network -> pingable from other UNIX-hosts / Windows hosts ) , I received Failure report , part of which is , given below:
