#3 Re: Reporting Debian bugs without a working MTA Posted by tong (69.63.xx.xx) on Sat 27 Jan 2007 at 21:09 @cef, "What about... pasting into the email client of your choice", and then what? This article talks about reporting Debian bugs without a working MTA, apparently you do... @Anonymous (83.17.xx.xx): Sadly, some networks blocks outgoing traffic to remote port 25 That's the very reason that I don't have a working MTA previously (before I've configured my smarthost). and bugs.debian.org do not listen on submission (tcp/587) port. no wonder! I tested that before, otherwise, there won't be such article. Currently more and more ISPs are blocking the 25 port... this article will help those who want to report bugs but don't want to bother configuring smarthost
