why can't I receive mail send via mailx? [on hold]


As a new Linux user, I would like to send out emails using a software called bsd-mailx under debian terminal mode. I just installed bsd-mailx on my Debian Wheezy pogoplug box, and wrote out a test message to my Hotmail address as the following:



mailx recipient_user_name@hotmail.com


... control+ D


After that, I constantly check the incoming folder of my hotmail box and I still can't find any email in my Hotmail incoming folder. Why is that? What's wrong with mailx. Do I need to set up SMTP in mailx's configuration file? How can I use my local Debian machine as the SMTP server?
