In addition to using send-pr, there is another way to submit a
problem report. You can simply send an e-mail message to the PR
submission e-mail address of the support site (This address should be
published by the support site.)
When you send unformatted e-mail to this address, GNATS processes the message as a new problem report, filling in as many fields from defaults as it can:
SynopsisThe Synopsis field is filled in by the Subject header of
the e-mail message.
Submitter IDGNATS will try to derive the Submitter field from the address
in the From header of the e-mail.
DescriptionAll of the text in the body of the e-mail message is put into the
Description field.
Other fields, such as Category, Version, Severity,
etc. are set to default values as defined by the GNATS administrator.
