[ubuntu-dev] Bug#637169: /usr/bin/requestsync: default mail configuration fails (with a traceback)

[Karl Goetz]

Package: ubuntu-dev-tools
Version: 0.101
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/requestsync

I've stepped all the way through requestsync, and the final step bombs out on me:
Press [Enter] to continue or [Ctrl-C] to abort. 
Connecting to fiordland.ubuntu.com:25 ...
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/requestsync", line 240, in <module>
    mailBug(srcpkg, subscribe, status, title, report, options.keyid)
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/ubuntutools/requestsync/mail.py", line 226, in mailBug
    s.sendmail(myemailaddr, to, mail.encode('utf-8'))
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/smtplib.py", line 709, in sendmail
    raise SMTPRecipientsRefused(senderrs)
smtplib.SMTPRecipientsRefused: {'new at bugs.launchpad.net': (554, '5.7.1 <new at bugs.launchpad.net>: Relay access denied')}

I invoked the command as `requestsync -d sid -s -e freeciv oneiric`
thanks,
kk
