Description W.C. Martin 2001-08-24 02:19:33 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.2) Gecko/20010725

Description of problem:
When using the "b" (bounce) command to re-send a message from within elm,
it fails to do anything.  Close examination shows that an error message is
displayed, but quickly erased.

The error message is:

sh -c: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token `<(n'
sh -c: line 1: `(/usr/sbin/sendmail -oi -oem "user"
<(null);/bin/rm -f (null))&'

I'm guessing that the "(null)" might result from a bad string pointer.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):2.5.5-1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.In elm, enter the "b" command and a destination address.
2.The error message is erased almost instantly, so capture output to a buffer.

	

Actual Results:  The above error message is displayed briefly and the email
is not actually sent to the destination address.

Expected Results:  The email message should be re-sent.
