You can substitute whatever command is equivalent on your box.
Yep, I suppose that command could be replaced by invoking "mutt", instead. > This script and the BTS aren;t tied in to the box from which you report > a script.

As I read it, the script is basically a loop that retrieves the bug number for all the bugs that have been sent by the reporter and sends subcription e-mails to the BTS robot... but you still have to manually reply to the incoming confirmation e-mails, right? And this is when the Procmail recipe comes into play, I guess, to close the cycle. It can be useful for mass-susbcriptions and mass-confirmation (when used alongside Procmail or a similar filter to do the job) but is still too much work -IMO- for bug reporters that are not using such mailing schema. I'll wait for better days to come... Greetings, -- Camaleón -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
