I just installed Debian Etch (4.1.1) that I'm planning on using as a syslog

that greps the logs nightly for error messages that I care about. The
problem is I can't get the results of the script to be emailed to me.
I've installed sendmail, but I'm not having much luck getting it to work.
When I attempt to send messages from the command line by doing "sendmail
myemail@mydomain.com" it appears to go, but I never get the email. Any help
would be appreciated.
I ever try to avoid using the "sendmail" command (it has many options
and I don't remember them).
You can also use "mailx" to send mails:
echo "message in the body of the mail" | mailx -s "Subject" somebody@host.com
