Regression.
(More or less the same problem we had a few months back, bug #5299.)
Cannot send a bug report on Windows. Symptoms slightly different, however.
When I hit C-c C-c in the bug-report window and answer `yes' to the prompt to
send the report, it simply claims that it sent the bug report (but it did not),
and shows me the buffer *sent mail to bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org*.
It should invoke my mail client (Outlook), popping up a new mail message
addressed properly with the Subject filled out and the body having text saying
that you can paste the bug-report contents there.
The `From' field in the buffer *sent mail...* shows this:
From: dradams@DRADAMS-LAP1.i-did-not-set--mail-host-address--so-tickle-me
Users should not need to set anything in order to be able to send Emacs bug
reports. It is not the users who need "tickling" here.
First reported to emacs-devel (no response) for this version:

Is this in "emacs -Q"? If so, what is your value of
send-mail-function?

Yes. The default value from emacs -Q: `mailclient-send-it'. That's the same
value as in Emacs 23.2 (and earlier Emacs 24 snapshots), where there is no
problem.

The problem seems elusive, it doesn't happen when I Edebug. If you
could find out or recall when did it last work for you in Emacs 24,
that would allow to narrow down the search for the culprit.

It works fine in:
In GNU Emacs 24.0.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600)
of 2010-11-09 on 3249CTO
Windowing system distributor `Microsoft Corp.', version 5.1.2600
configured using `configure --with-gcc (4.4) --no-opt --cflags
-Ic:/imagesupport/include'
It does not work in the version I first reported (build of 2010-11-16).

What do you see in the "unsent mail" buffer?

Thanks. I found the culprit, it's this change:
2010-11-10 Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen <larsi@gnus.org>
* net/browse-url.el (browse-url-browser-function): Change the
default to use `browse-url-mail' on mailto: URLs.
Lars, what was the rationale for that change? It breaks
report-emacs-bug, which uses the mailto: URLs. `browse-url-mail'
simply uses Emacs to compose a mail message, which is of course
useless when browse-url is called from mailclient.el because Emacs
failed to find any better way of sending mail, and falls back to
mailto:.

It was so that HTML rendered in Emacs would use Emacs to send the email,
instead of popping up a browser window. Which often doesn't work, since
you need to have mail configured in your browser...

So report-emacs-bug tries to determine whether Emacs can send mail, and
if it can't, it tries to open a browser, in the hope that it knows how
to send mail? In what situations does this occur?

Apparently the situation is the reverse on MS-Windows and Macs: mail
from Emacs often doesn't work, and simply punting to the system's
mailto: handler is a better guess.

Not really, more like by default it doesn't even try on Windows and Macs.
Check the conditions in which send-mail-function defaults to
mailclient-send-it. I suggest you copy those conditions to the default
setting of browse-url-browser-function.

Why would it pop up a browser for a mailto: URL? Most systems will be
configured to open a mail client for such URLs. I think the default URL
handler for modern GNU/Linux desktops as well as Windows and Mac is
capable of this.

Hm...
(defcustom send-mail-function
(if (and window-system (memq system-type '(darwin windows-nt)))
'mailclient-send-it
'sendmail-send-it)
Oh, so the thing is that `mailclient-send-it' itself uses browse-url to
send the message that has already been composed?
Clicking on a mailto: URL (with the current settings) will give you an
Emacs mail buffer (of some sort; depends on your configuration), and
this seems to be the right thing to do, instead of just calling an
external program to compose your mail.
But actually sending the message is a different matter.
`mailclient-send-it' just calls `browse-url' with a mailto: URL with all
the buffer contents and everything to actually send the message. So
there seems to be two distinct usages for mailto: wrt browse-url: For
composing, and for sending.
Perhaps the right fix here is to alter `mailclient-send-it' to filter
out any mailto: settings in `browse-url-browser-function' before calling
`browse-url'. I can do that, if that sounds like the right solution.
Otherwise we'll have to split up `browse-url-browser-function' somehow
for the two different mailto: use cases.

The other two options that I see are:
1) Revert `browse-url-browser-function' to the previous definition, and
special-case mailto: handling in all the callers so that they end up in
an Emacs mail buffer when they ask for a mailto: URL. This doesn't seem
very satisfactory.
2) Revert `browse-url-browser-function', but add a new variable
`browse-url-mailto-function', which will be checked by `browse-url' on
mailto: URLs. mailclient.el would bind that to nil before calling
`browse-url' to get the system browser to handle sending the mail.
Of the three possibilities, I think the last one would be most
backwards-compatible and featureful.

Yes, this sounds like a good change, since it will make
mailclient-send-it more robust.
But maybe we should also change browse-url so it doesn't use Emacs for
"mailto:" if send-mail-function is set to mailclient-send-it.

That sounds OK, yes.

Is this before or after you press C-c C-c to send?
After I press C-c C-c, what I see in the unsent mail buffer is this:

I haven't followed the rest of what you guys are saying, but that is the text
that should appear in the mail client new mail message body, on Windows. You
just select it and hit C-v to paste the prepared bug report content.

The question above is unrelated to the portions of the thread that you
didn't follow.

Yes, I know that. I was asking you whether you see this text in the
"unsent mail" buffer _after_ you type C-c C-c to send the bug report.
The reason I'm asking is that I do see this in the "unsent mail"
buffer, and I'm trying to make sure that you and I see the same
problem, which is that Emacs uses its own facilities to compose the
bug reporting mail, instead of passing the baton to the system's mail
agent.

3) Modify browse-url-default-browser to recognise mailto urls and try a
different list of programs than the liist of webrowsers it currently tries.

Yes, if I visit that buffer after `C-c C-c yes' I see that text.

Thanks. Lars fixed this in the repository, so the next snapshot
should have report-emacs-bug working again.
