@scottalanmiller so do I even need postfix?
Yes, mailx is only a client, it's telling Postfix to send it. if you wanted to send through Postfix by hand, you could.
Fun = telnet to postfix and send E-mail that way
Right, it's a standard thing to have to learn to do, but once you learn how, you never want to do it again. But it's standard for students to have to do it to learn how network protocols work and it is a great demonstration of "you don't need a client."

It is also demonstrates a reason to appreciate having a decent client app.
