What were you trying to do?
Send a bug report
What's wrong:
My mh aliases were screwed up, and it wouldn't let me:
What now? se
spost: aliasing error in file aliases - unable to read 'aliases'
send: message not delivered to anyone
What should have happened:
In my opinion, sendbug needs to be very robust, to handle
the multitude of things a user can do wrong to his/her account.
In this case, it broke because this was the first time I've used
`comp' outside of my homedir. Other reasons I can think of for
it to break is if a user makes his/her mail directory unreadable
by owner, if a user is at hard quota, if a user doesn't have
enough memory to start (another! groan) emacs process, etc...
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
Umm.. let's see...
No manual entry for sendbug.
Oh, well!
