You Do NOT needsudotoecho. If you really put<and>aroundmymail, you've redirected input frommymailand redirected the output to@outlook.com.

I didn't put <> there, those was just for indicating that I used an another name, I also tried without sudo, it didn't work anyways. I'm re-installing ubuntu now and see if that changes something, I've tried so many ways via different websites and none of them worked, I've probably installed to many things that collide with each other too.

You Do NOT need
sudo to echo. If you really put < and > around mymail, you've redirected input from mymail and redirected the output to @outlook.com.– waltinator
