Guys,

Where did you got that command line from?
in /var/spool/mqueue or /var/spool/clientmqueue with DERIVED status.
Former is the daemon's mail queue, last the submission mail queue.
I think that either FROM address & Return-Path are wrong, or the sender's
address could not be resolved by target SMTP.
date | mail -s "this is a test" recipient@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
And read your /var/log/maillog to see what happens.
How do I send a simple e-mail? sendmail is too complicated. Is there anything
else (exim and postfix I tried and cried...)
What does the MTA have to do with client side mail sending? - Normally
done by using a MUA, like mail, nail, mutt, pine ... or a GUI one like
evolution or thunderbird.
