Hi,
I am using solaris 5.9 OS and I am facing an issues with mailx.
My SMTP port is configured to listen 6190 and not the default one which is 25. I can send mail to my inbox when i do it manually through the following steps
root@<dbname> # telnet 15.12.88.10 6190
Trying 15.12.88.10...
Connected to 15.12.88.10.
Escape character is '^]'.

In one of the above lie i could notice the error
050 >>> MAIL From:<apsprd@<domain name>.com> SIZE=370
050 530 5.7.3 Client was not authenticated
This is because the smtp is tryiong to connect to port 25 and hence getting this error.
Can somebody help me on how to change the default port number for smtp. I also tried changing the below lines in sendmail.cf but that doesnt help
O DaemonPortOptions=Name=MTA-v4, Family=inet
O DaemonPortOptions=Name=MTA-v6, Family=inet6
O DaemonPortOptions=Port=6190, Name=MSA, M=E
where the port number was 587 initially
