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" [email protected] < /tmp/coi.html

If that doesn't work, you're going to have to avoid using mailx and
construct the message header yourself.
