The trouble here is that to have it properly rendered as HTML on receipt, it has to be tagged as HTML in the *headers* of the message. In your example, the headers are created by mailx, which is a very old interface that doesn't know how to apply the appropriate tagging.
You may be able to fool it by doing this (note placement of newlines is important, also removed unnecessary use of cat and subshell):
mailx -s "Test HTML output in outlook MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/html" sven.aluoor@ubs.com < /tmp/coi.html
Thanks you Bart. Works very well :-)
If that doesn't work, you're going to have to avoid using mailx and construct the message header yourself.
I am just curious (I have my solution): what are alternatives for sending mails on Linux command line?
