bug#4140: 23.1.50; Fail to CC with `Message MML'

[Robert J. Chassell]

    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:

In yesterday's CVS Emacs, with `emacs -Q -D', I failed to CC to
bob@benthic.rattlesnake.com with `Message MML' in the mode line
although a post succeeded that was sent via fp.gnu.org, which had
Emacs 22 on it.  (The system administrators may have updated it to 23
this morning; that is when Debian testing had the released Emacs 23).
The Emacs 22 I sent the successful email on said `Mail' in the mode
line.

I may have something wrong in my /var/mail/ directory, but I have not
changed it for a very long time; certainly, I have not changed it
since Emacs 22.

What I think you are saying is that you tried to send a message after
the default value of mail-user-agent changed from sendmail-user-agent to
message-user-agent (this is what the "Message MML" in the mode line
means, it did change around the time you sent your report) and somehow
the CC piece did not work.

Sorry, but there is not enough information here to enable us to do
anything. If you can reproduce this problem, please reply with as much
detail as you can and we can reopen this bug if needed. Otherwise
there's nothing we can do.
