Package: reportbug Version: 3.39-0.1 Severity: wishlist reportbug isn't very useful if you don't have an mta working properly. Thus, I would like to suggest that reportbug will have some kind of a mechanism to check that the user's mta is actually configured and working by sending an empty bug report. If this doesn't succeed reportbug should aid the user to configure his MTA.
This is espcially true to users who don't have their own mail server but would like to use services such as yahoo! mail or gmail with exim. I hope someone will agree with me on this.
