Post subject:  mailx doesn't work

Hi! I'm a linux noob setting up my new Ubuntu 10.04 Linode.
I was following the tutorial on setting up Postfix here:
http://library.linode.com/email/postfix/dovecot-mysql-ubuntu-10.04-lucid

But when I got to the entering the
Code:
mailx bob@avionio.com
part, after setting the Cc: and Subject: fields, the shell just froze forever. It still doesn't appear to be doing anything.

What could be the problem?

Thanks! Any help is greatly appreciated!

Is it accepting input? What does Ctrl-D do? Or Ctrl-C?

If it's completely unresponsive and doesn't even echo back your input, I'd imagine your SSH connection to your Linode was interrupted somehow.
