package: debbugs severity: minor
Hello! On the Debian PTS I subscribed to the bug mailing list of source package <package>. I then received a confirmation challenge like that: +----------------------------------------------------------------------- | From: Debian Package Tracking System <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | To: <my email> | Subject: CONFIRM <hexa challenge> | Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-15 | Content-Transfert-Encoding: 8bit | | Hello, | | you asked to be subscribed to the "mailing list"[1] for the Debian | source package called <package>. To complete this process, you | have to reply to this mail by including this command : | CONFIRM <hexa challenge> | | On any modern mailer, you just have to hit reply and send the mail. | | If you don't understand why you got this mail, please ignore it, | you won't be subscribed to anything unless you confirm it. | | If you have any problem with this service, please contact | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | Thanks, | | [1] This list receives all the bug reports (and the corresponding logs) | for the package "<package>" that are sent to the Debian | Bug Tracking System. Check http://bugs.debian.org/src:<package> to | see what it looks like. +----------------------------------------------------------------------- The header contains: | Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-15 | Content-Transfert-Encoding: 8bit There are 3 problems: -1) "Transfer" has a typo final "t". -2) Body really contains US-Ascii 7 bits, so those fields should perhaps not be inserted at all (no need to state default values). -3) If those fields were necessary, there lacks a "MIME-Version: 1.0" field to complete the MIME triplet.
