Realistically, send-pr is the way that we handle this stuff, so if you want to make a contribution, you should put some thought into making it work. > I seem to have the only FreeBSD PC in my environment and my FreeBSD PC is > not allowed to send emails by the mailing system. Is there a possibility of using a smart host to forward the mail? This is usually easily accomplished by adding the smart host to the DS line in sendmail.cf, and then restarting sendmail. You might also consider asking for help from someone on the list who can submit the PR for you. There are probably other solutions as well. Or, you could do nothing. Your choice.
