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 $LC_MONETARY: nil value of $LC_NUMERIC: nil value of $LC_TIME: nil value of $LANG: ENU locale-coding-system: iso-latin-1 default-enable-multibyte-characters: t 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).
