Try (setq message-interactive t) and see if that gives more information.

Try

FAKEMAILER=/usr/bin/mail; export FAKEMAILER # in sh

or 

setenv FAKEMAILER /usr/bin/mail # in csh

Thanks. That gives a bit. It says: Sending...failed to sh: /bin/mail:
no such file or directory;

On my system it appears that mail is placed in /usr/bin instead of
/bin

If I copy mail to /bin gnus work just fine, but it seem a litte bit
wrong to do that. Is there anyway to tell gnus to use /usr/bin/mail
instead og /bin/mail ? I can't seem to find anything about it in the
manual.


Thanks
Martin
