Speaking for $self​: I think I'd find this error message​:

##### +my $success_msg = "\nMessage has been handed over to this computer's mail system\n"; #####

... just as confusing as the one it replaces. I suspect that most people do not use their "computer's mail system" to send mail; they use Thunderbird or Outlook or some other mail client. But\, as I know from experience\, 'perlbug' does *not* hand its message over to one's email client. On the rare occasions when I use 'perlbug' (rather than logging into rt.perl.org)\, I only use it to compose a message which I then save and mail via Thunderbird.

So this patch wouldn't really help me -- but that's just my two cents.

This is a bug report for perl from klaus@​soonix.de\, generated with the help of perlbug 1.40 running under perl 5.20.2.

----------------------------------------------------------------- This is a patch for perlbug. On perlmonks\, someone mentioned wanting to send a bug report and perlbug reported success\, but the bug report did not come through\, most probably due to un- or misconfigured mailer. A more verbose success message might help here. See attached file

Speaking for $self​: I think I'd find this error message​:

##### +my $success_msg = "\nMessage has been handed over to this computer's mail system\n"; #####

... just as confusing as the one it replaces. I suspect that most people do not use their "computer's mail system" to send mail; they use Thunderbird or Outlook or some other mail client. But\, as I know from experience\, 'perlbug' does *not* hand its message over to one's email client. On the rare occasions when I use 'perlbug' (rather than logging into rt.perl.org)\, I only use it to compose a message which I then save and mail via Thunderbird.

So this patch wouldn't really help me -- but that's just my two cents.

I'm not sure it helps either.

The original discussion appears to be at​:

http​://perlmonks.org/?node_id=1162919

It's possible the correct solution is a patch for #121553\, though that's going to be ugly if the mailer is configured for Thunderbird and you're in a non-"-Y" ssh session.
