Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.
Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org mailing list.
Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:
Hello!
Please Cc: me, I'm not subscribed to the list.
Since at least one week `message-send-mail-function' gets assigned a
wrong default value, which, according to its description, should be
`message-send-mail-with-sendmail'. However, it seems that the default
value is `smtpmail-send-it'. In fact, I discovered this bug because
after the weekly upgrade of the Debian emacs-snapshot package I couldn't
send mail anymore from Gnus.
Steps to reproduce the bug:
$ emacs -Q
M-: (require 'message)
C-h v message-send-mail-function
The bug is caused by the fact that `sendmail-program' isn't bounded in
lisp/gnus/message.el:624. The following steps restore the "default"
behavior:
$ emacs -Q
M-: (require 'sendmail)
M-: (require 'message)
C-h v message-send-mail-function
Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca
If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
`bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
/usr/share/emacs/23.0.50/etc/DEBUG for instructions.

Thanks for the bug report.
This has been known for a few weeks, Reiner Steib has a fix for it, he
said he'd install it when he gets a chance.

Symbol's value as variable is void: program
(defun message-send-mail-function ()
"Return suitable value for the variable `message-send-mail-function'."
(cond ((and sendmail-program
(executable-find program))
^^^^^^^
Should be sendmail-program?

This doesn't fix it. While `make bootstrap' I got:
Compiling /Work/emacs/lisp/./mh-e/mh-show.el
In toplevel form:
mh-e/mh-show.el:43:1:Error: Symbol's value as variable is void: sendmail-program
Maybe it should be:
(defun message-send-mail-function ()
"Return suitable value for the variable `message-send-mail-function'."
(cond ((and (boundp 'sendmail-program) sendmail-program)
(executable-find sendmail-program))

For me the *obvious* fix is the following:

Loading the local and modified lisp/gnus/message.el instead of
(require 'message) on an `emacs -Q` clearly sets
`message-send-mail-function' to the documentation default value
`message-send-mail-with-sendmail'.

When starting gnus I get an error about an unknown variable
sendmail-program. It works fine if gnus is started after
M-x load-library RET sendmail RET.
