Description Kirk Bridger 2005-10-13 00:58:11 UTC 
When submitting bugs via bug-buddy, an installation of sendmail is required. 
Most (if not all) desktop installs will not have this tool.  As a result the m
ajority of bugs encountered by desktop users will not be submitted.

Other options should be offered, such as email submission via the desktop email
client or automatic web-form completion using the input data.
