Common issues with reportbug:
EXIM IS CONFIGURED FOR LOCAL DELIVERY: In Debian 4.0 (etch) and later,
exim4 is configured by default to only deliver email to addresses
on your system. YOUR BUG REPORTS WILL NOT ARRIVE AT THE BUG
TRACKING SYSTEM UNLESS YOU FOLLOW ONE OF THE FOLLOWING STEPS, either:
- Reconfigure exim (using 'dpkg-reconfigure -plow exim4') to send
mail to the Internet directly or via a smarthost.
- Configure reportbug to deliver mail to your ISP's smarthost or
bugs.debian.org directly (using 'reportbug --configure').
EMAIL ADDRESS SETTING: See the manual page reportbug(1) for how to set
your email address (i.e. the address that appears in the "From:"
header), if reportbug is unable to correctly figure it out for you.
Note that some mail systems will further rewrite the address
displayed by reportbug when it starts.
EDITORS: See the manual page reportbug(1) for how to choose an editor.
You probably will want to have this setting for other tools as
well. As an alternative, some mail programs, such as "mutt", can
be configured to be used as the editor for your report, which you
may find preferable.
