Regression.
(More or less the same problem we had a few months back, bug #5299.)
Cannot send a bug report on Windows. Symptoms slightly different, however.
When I hit C-c C-c in the bug-report window and answer `yes' to the prompt to
send the report, it simply claims that it sent the bug report (but it did not),
and shows me the buffer *sent mail to bug-gnu-emacs <at> gnu.org*.
It should invoke my mail client (Outlook), popping up a new mail message
addressed properly with the Subject filled out and the body having text saying
that you can paste the bug-report contents there.
The `From' field in the buffer *sent mail...* shows this:
From: dradams <at> DRADAMS-LAP1.i-did-not-set--mail-host-address--so-tickle-me
Users should not need to set anything in order to be able to send Emacs bug
reports. It is not the users who need "tickling" here.
First reported to emacs-devel (no response) for this version:
In GNU Emacs 24.0.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600)
of 2010-11-22 on 3249CTO
Windowing system distributor `Microsoft Corp.', version 5.1.2600
configured using `configure --with-gcc (4.4) --no-opt --cflags

Problem still exists in this version:
