[Cvsnt] How do I send an e-mail with cvs log data from CVS server running on WinXP after a commit?

[Bo Berglund]

Jason,
I tried to reply to your follow-up privately but your address was not
recognized by your server. Is it forged?

Anyway I paste the message contents into this newsgroup reponse
instead:
------------
Well,
not without me opening up the project and adding more info.
However, the incomplete header in this case comes from the fact that
the To: field is not properly filled in...

The system works like this:
1) It builds a list of users and email pairs from the CVSROOT/users
   file (Falls back to the ini file if this file is not found)
2) Then it looks in the list of subscribed users to see which users
   will get the email. This list is CVSROOT/loginfousers

The log file should reflect this parsing as in the following example:
20020614 17:59:45 DEBUG: Reading the subscribed user list in
d:/cvs/pc\CVSROOT\loginfousers
20020614 17:59:45 DEBUG: Parsing the subscribed users
20020614 17:59:45 DEBUG: Found user bosse
20020614 17:59:45 DEBUG: Adding user email Bo Berglund
<bosse at somedomain.com>
20020614 17:59:45 DEBUG: Found user shannon
20020614 17:59:45 DEBUG: Adding user email Shannon Cash
<shannon at somedomain.com>
20020614 17:59:45 DEBUG: Found user liz
20020614 17:59:45 DEBUG: Adding user email Liz Lagmanson
<liz at somedomain.com>
20020614 17:59:45 DEBUG: Processing log message
... etc ...

What it actually does is adding the 'subscribed' user to the To: field
if found.
Now, in your log example this is totally missing. You must build both
the users and the loginfousers file as described in the readme file.

But of course there is a bug in my program, it should check that there
is at least one recipient before trying to send the message. Now the
mailserver is the one detecting this error...

This is exactly what I was after.  Thank you.

I have a quick question.  Is there a way to get more debug information
than this?  It tries to send the e-mail, but logs an error about some
incomplete header or something.
