Message-ID: <x0vgb8j4ik.fsf@radon.ee.ryerson.ca> (raw)

This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation,
not to your local site managers!
Please write in English, because the Emacs maintainers do not have
translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org mailing
list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.

In GNU Emacs 21.1.1 (i386-msvc-nt5.1.2600)
 of 2001-10-22 on buffy
configured using `configure --with-msvc (12.00)'
Important settings:
  value of $LC_ALL: nil
  value of $LC_COLLATE: nil
  value of $LC_CTYPE: nil
  value of $LC_MESSAGES: nil

  value of $LANG: ENU

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

I cannot send mail from Emacs running under Windows XP connected via
a PPP dialup connection (this is a game machine; installing GNU/Linux
on it would mean that I would have to do work at home). 

When I select either Rmail or Sendmail (from the menu) to send email,
Emacs complains that a program called 'fakemail' is not found.

I don't know whether this is a bug (it's supposed to work, but
doesn't) or not (it's not suposed to work).
