Yes, Dave, MH is hardcoded into the sendbug program. There is emacs
lisp code for sendbug which I use (this is the same as jik's.) Look at
~ckclark/elisp/rmail-athbug.el. Load it in and do a:
M-x rmail-ATHENABUG
Then type in the info and do a C-c C-c when you are done
to send the bug.
I recommend using this instead the sendbug program for users who have been
weaned off MH. I have forwarded this to bugs so that anyone else who
has been having similar problems will know the alternative.
If you don't use MH, you really don't want to use `sendbug,' becuause it
uses `whatnow' to send the message. `Whatnow' is an MH utility which,
like all other MH utilities, will stomp all over your homedir without
asking.
