Mail from within a script to an external address...

["J. Nestlerode" <nestlerode usa dupont com>]

Greetings.

This command, called from a script, works as expected and sends an
e-mail to farmer localhost:

echo "Test message" |mail -s "Test" farmer

However, this variation does not work, and I think it should:

echo "Test message" |mail -s "Test" nestlerode usa dupont com

Would this be a configuration problem somewhere?  There does not seem to
be anything amiss in /etc/mail.rc (as far as I can tell).  Other
external e-mail (pine, netscape) works fine.  Also, as a work-around, I
tried adding this alias to /etc/aliases:

farmer:	 nestlerode usa dupont com

and then running the `newaliases' command.  After that, *neither* of the
above echo commands produce an e-mail.  What am I missing?

Thanks very much for any pointers, 

Joe
