Each line in the file specifies a configuration \fIparameter\fR, together with an associated \fIvalue\fR. Parameters defined in the send-pr.conf file override the defaults specified in the .B send-pr(1) program file. .PP The file uses ordinary Bourne shell syntax, where '=' denotes assignment of a value to a parameter. .PP The supported parameters, together with allowed values, are: .TP .B SUBMITTER =\ "string" Sets the default value of the GNATS field \fIsubmitter\fR which is used in the standard template for new PRs. .TP .B DEFAULT_ORGANIZATION =\ "organization" Sets the default value of the GNATS field \fIorganization\fR which is used in the standard template for new PRs. .TP .B MAILPROG =\ "command-string" By default, .B send-pr(1) will submit Problem Reports by connecting directly to the GNATS database server. However, when the MAILPROG parameter points to a mailer, send will use e-mail to submit the PR to the GNATS database. If the mailer needs to have the address that the mail is being sent to specified on the command line, it should be specified in MAILPROG as well. If sendmail or a sendmail-compatible mailer is being used, the setting MAILPROG = "/usr/lib/sendmail\ \-oi\ \-t" should work for most installations. .TP .B MAILADDR =\ "address" When e-mail is to be used for submission of new Problem Reports, the MAILADDR should be set to point to the address where PRs should be sent. .TP .B TEMPLATE =\ "file" GNATS administrators may want to provide a template for Problem Reports. Templates are created by invoking .B send-pr(1) with the \fB-P\fR option. When the TEMPLATE parameter is set to point to a file created this way, the template will be loaded into the editor when users invoke .B send-pr(1). .SH "SEE ALSO" .I Keeping Track: Managing Messages With GNATS (also installed as the GNU Info file .BR gnats.info ) and .I Reporting Problems Using send-pr (also installed as the GNU Info file .BR send-pr.info ). .LP .BR gnats (7), .BR send-pr (1), .BR edit-pr (1), .BR file-pr (8), .BR queue-pr (8), .BR nquery-pr (1), .BR mkcat (8), .BR rmcat (8), .BR gen-index (8), .BR mkdb (8). .SH AUTHOR Yngve Svendsen .SH COPYING Copyright (c) 2001 Free Software Foundation, Inc. .PP Permission is granted to make and distribute verbatim copies of this manual provided the copyright notice and this permission notice are preserved on all copies. .PP Permission is granted to copy and distribute modified versions of this manual under the conditions for verbatim copying, provided that the entire resulting derived work is distributed under the terms of a permission notice identical to this one. .PP Permission is granted to copy and distribute translations of this manual into another language, under the above conditions for modified versions, except that this permission notice may be included in translations approved by the Free Software Foundation instead of in the original English.
