Public bug reported: Binary package hint: nmh
version: nmh 1.1-release-4 Ubuntu 6.06, i386 I use spost instead of post, and it fails with: spost: can't exec no: No such file or directory For example, edit a draft message in Emacs, and then try to send it with: spost /home/sanjoy/Mail/drafts/10 and the error above shows up. This message solved the problem: <http://www.mhonarc.org/archive/html/nmh-workers/2006-04/msg00013.html> Based on that URL, I added this line to mts.conf: sendmail: /usr/sbin/sendmail The explanation is that nmh was compiled on a system without sendmail, so the default for it is 'no', which spost tries to exec. I didn't have this problem with the Debian testing version of nmh. ** Affects: nmh (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- spost fails with "can't exec no" https://launchpad.net/bugs/52346 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
