mailx configuration help

Hi,

I am just after installing solaris 9 on a test box, an ultra 10..
I want to configure mail..

Is mailx the standard mail program on solaris 9?
If so - how do I check the current config settings for this and alter them if necessary?

Tks

Hi,

mailx is recommended if you're using text terminal... otherwise, you can use dtmail... If you want, you can install pine, it has a lot of options that mailx hasn't...

Check here (Oracle Help Center ) for mailx documentation...

Hi,

Thanks - I will have a look through this now..

I just needed to know what the standard mail program is that solaris 9 uses, and will be using scripts on different box's and need to ensure they can use the same mail program...

Hi,

How do I configure the external mail server in solaris 9?

ie. - I want to send a mail to an internet address, and need to configure our mail server so that this mail can be routed to the mail server and out from there??
