I found this under Tips and Tricks. If you want you could add HP-UX.

My alert emails come without a subject
Hobbit by default uses the system mail command to send out messages. Solaris mail-command does not understand the "-s SUBJECT" syntax that Hobbit uses. So you get mails with no subject. The solution is to change the MAIL setting in etc/hobbitserver.cfg to use the mailx command instead. Hobbit needs to be restarted after this change./p>

Done. But I made a change in the installation for Solaris and HP-UX,
so that MAIL is automatically set to "mailx" on these two systems -
so this should no longer be a problem.
