Or has someone found a workaround for the problem with the > command line length restriction? Apparently, you _are_ talking about something that Emacs did, and not = something that we users did. When you say "we", you apparently mean Emacs. In that case, yes, as I already indicated in detail earlier, I pasted = the true bug-report content to the email message prepared by Emacs (via my mail = client). Please read my earlier message that details this. But I don't even get to that stage now. I don't get an email-client = message created. I doubt that Outlook is ever invoked in any way. As soon as I = type `yes' to confirm that I want to send a bug report, the error is raised. > > Are you able to reproduce the bug using Jason's pretest=20 > > build and `emacs -Q'? Well, are you? Have you tried using Jason's build with emacs -Q and an = external email client? That is the first thing to try.
