Package: apticron
Version: 1.1.42
Severity: important

I was not receiving emails from apticron, so I took a look at the script it is 
using, found something strange...

In the script at /usr/sbin/apticron the command for sending the email is used 
as "Mailx". When this is typed at the command line --> Command not found."
What the true command should be is "mailx" without the capital "M".

Surprising is I cant find anyone else who has come accross this issue.
