i as root just installed

sendmail and mailx. i have edited the ~/.mailrc to use:


nikos@superhost.gr [~/www/cgi-bin]# cat ~/.mailrc
account gmail {
set smtp-use-starttls
set smtp=smtp://smtp.gmail.com:587
set smtp-auth=login
set smtp-auth-user=may)gmail
set smtp-auth-password=my_gmail_pass_not_stupid_enough_to_wite _it_again
}e



And now i'm trying  to:


cmd = "echo %s | mailx -A gmail -r %s -s %s %s"  %  (MESSAGE, FROM, 
SUBJECT, TO)
p=subprocess.Popen( cmd, shell=True, stdout=subprocess.PIPE )
output, errors = p.communicate()
print( errors, output )


Any ideas please why this fails to work?
while i remove the '-A gmail' string in the cmd line then i can send 
fast mail but only to mail containing the @superhost.gr trail.

i need to be eble to send to external mails to.
