If I use the following command(s), email is sent to root no problems. root
is aliased to some external email addresses, and they all receive the email.

echo testing | mailx -s test root

echo testing | mail root

Regards,
Mark.

I don't know what the problem would be unless sendmail is not
setup correctly on the machine in question.  If you send mail
to root on that machine does the message get through?  E.g.

    echo testing | mail -s test root
