Package: lynx-cur
Version: 2.8.6-18
Severity: wishlist

One of the most basic functions in lynx, mailing another user a copy
of the current web page, fails to work with the the error "No system
mailer defined."

An easy fix on a debian-based distribution is to uncomment a
line in the lynx.cfg configuration, i.e., 

SYSTEM_MAIL:/usr/sbin/sendmail

For the sake of a default friendly to newbies, the package should be
fixed accordingly.  This particular version of lynx is the first time
I have experienced this error after using lynx in hundreds of
versions.

Thanks in advance!
