Have to remove both -a & -S in order not to get the syntax
error but the emails never arrive:
(I'm able to 'telnet 172.20.1.92 25' from the server that mailx is issued
from)
# mailx -s "test5" -u root "smtp=172.20.1.92" recipient@xxxxxxx <
/tmp/cis/group.tmp
Or
# mailx -s "test5" -u root "smtp=172.20.1.92:25" recipient@xxxxxxx <
/tmp/cis/group.tmp
If I issue just the command below from the sendmail relay
server itself (without the -S & without "smtp=IP_of_SMTP"),
the emails arrive:
mailx -s "from SMTP2 server" external_recipient@xxxxxxx < /tmp/tst.dat
I browsed thru the man pages for mailx : can't
locate a -S or "smtp=a.b.c.d" option. Did I miss
something?
