Good afternoon, Adam (your name is strikingly familiar to me)! That was the first time I used send-pr, please excuse my greenness. The "bug" I submitted was that there is a manpage for blast but no flags, so why have a manpage? and the author listed on the manpage is no longer at the address listed, so how else am I supposed to know where I got "blast" from? I don't remember! > Don't just copy in an email that you sent to someone else. Explain -- > in plain English -- what the problem is, and what you want FreeBSD to > do about it. I had to copy the email in because I assumed you have some kind of robotic parser. When I run send-pr, it is as "root" and with a spoofed hostname, therefore, mail bounces back to me as soon as I choose "s" for send. There is a bug with send-pr :-) > Remember, Peter, that FreeBSD has absolutely nothing to do with > a third-party program. Sure it does.
