RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Patrick C. F. Ernzer 2010-06-09 02:08:07 UTC
Description of problem:
after installing abrt-plugin-mailx via package management (yum or rpm), one still needs to manually edit /etc/abrt/abrt.conf

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
abrt-1.1.4-1.el6.src.rpm

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install abrt-plugin-mailx
2. configure the plugin (via GUI or by editing /etc/abrt/plugins/Mailx.conf) 
3. xlogo &
4. killall -6 xlogo
  
Actual results:
no email sent

Expected results:
email sent out

Additional info:
according to the man page, it's a comma separated list. The config file gives them impression the parameter can be given multiple times. I used the former and did not try the latter.

Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2010-06-09 02:33:22 UTC
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux major release.  Product Management has requested further
review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux Major release.  This request is not yet committed for
inclusion.

Comment 3 Jiri Moskovcak 2010-06-14 14:05:47 UTC
This is not a bug, it's not supposed to be enabled, when you install it. To enable the plugin you need to change the config file /etc/abrt/abrt.conf.
