I have nothing to say on mail(1) interactive usage :-) and got confused
reading the man page, just as you.
You could use "sendbug -P > sendbug.out" to get your report in a file
and send that from a different host. Or edit the file and
$ cat sendbug.out | mail -s "my bug report" -r my_lap...@domain.com \
-c my_lap...@domain.com b...@openbsd.org

Do you see
smtpd[30872]: warn: queue: no return path!
in /var/log/maillog? Do you have a file named "dead.letter"?
