If $\{x_n\} \subset \ell^1$, then $\sum_{j=1}^\infty x_n(j)y(j)\to 0$ for every $y\in c_0$ iff $\sup_n||x_n||_1< \infty$ and $x_n(j)\to 0$ for $j\geq 1$.
I can proof it by the principle of uniform boundedness; but my question is "why is not it correct for every $y\in \ell^\infty$ (instead of $y\in c_0$)?"
