Package: reportbug
Version: 6.4.4
Severity: normal

Hi,

I want to send a bug report without MTA or sendmail, but whenever I'm trying to use Yahoo SMTP server, there's an error that reads: 

"SMTP send failure: Connection unexpectedly closed: timed out. Do you want to retry (or else save the report and exit?)"

Another thing to note was whenever I ran reportbug, a passage follows that there's an "unrecognized token" which is my smtpasswrd. 

Is there something wrong with the program?
