Subject: 23.1.50; error on loading message library
Date: Mon, 23 Nov 2009 12:00:51 +0000

Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug <at> gnu.org mailing list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug.  If you can, give
a recipe starting from `emacs -Q':



If I start emacs and evaluate the following code

(setq message-send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it
      send-mail-function  'smtpmail-send-it
      smtpmail-default-smtp-server "www.tnei.co.uk")
(setq smtpmail-local-domain "tnei.co.uk")
(setq user-full-name "Robert Marshall")
(setq user-mail-address "robert.marshall <at> tnei.co.uk")


and then M-x load-library tramp I get the following tracback
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-variable mail-envelope-from)
  (if (featurep (quote xemacs)) nil mail-envelope-from)
  eval((if (featurep (quote xemacs)) nil mail-envelope-from))
  custom-initialize-reset(message-sendmail-envelope-from (if (featurep (quote xemacs)) nil mail-envelope-from))
  custom-declare-variable(message-sendmail-envelope-from (if (featurep (quote xemacs)) nil mail-envelope-from) ("/home/robert/emacs/lisp/gnus/message.elc" . -29489) :version "22.1" :type (choice (string :tag "From name") (const :tag "Use From: header from message" header) (const :tag "Use `user-mail-address'" nil)) :link (custom-manual "(message)Mail Variables") :group message-sending)
  require(message)
; bytecode removed
  require(tramp-imap)
; rest of tb removed



If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
For information about debugging Emacs, please read the file
/home/robert/emacs/etc/DEBUG.

Note that the following is not all correct - I can't report a bug with
the latest version (got from cvs this morning) due to this problem!

    * message.el (message-from-style, message-interactive)
    (message-signature): Always set default values from the
    corresponding mail-* variables.
    (message-cite-prefix-regexp, message-sendmail-envelope-from)
    (message-yank-prefix, message-indentation-spaces)
    (message-signature-file, message-default-headers): Use boundp
    rather than (featurep 'xemacs) to check if the corresponding
    mail-* variables exist.
