[Reportbug-maint] Bug#702107: reportbug failed (my error) saved report in /tmp; no obvious way of resending report

[John Hughes]

Package: reportbug
Version: 6.4.3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,
*** Please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?

I wanted to report a bug

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

I ran report bug, unfortunately my mail config was screwed so I gave up and
reportbug saved toe report in /tmp

I fixed the config error and wanted to reuse the saved report

   * What was the outcome of this action?

I couldn't send the report

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

something dumb like repprtbug < /tmp/xxxx sgould send the report without
posing all the same questions.
