'darcs send --sendmail-command <cmd>' is supposed to replace %a in <cmd> with 
the name of the temporary file which contains the patch bundle. Indeed it 
creates such a temporary file, but reports a wrong name. Thorkil Naur kindly 
provided the shell script send-mail1.sh to verify what arguments the 
sendmail-command really gets. See attached file. To reproduce, call

darcs 
send --sendmail-command='./send-mail1.sh %s %t %c %b %f %a %S %t %C %B %F %A 
something %<'

and look at send-mail1.sh.out.

Would it be possible to turn this into a regression test?

Hello,

This is a simple test to see if I can make this message (that reports that a 
fix for issue1128 has been applied) appear in the bug tracker.

Best regards
Thorkil

It also changed the title (there is an issue about this, I seem to remember), 
so for now, i'll just change it back.

I'm working on a test for this.

droundy has added send-external.sh that covers this, I have verified that it 
succeeds in the unstable repository, so I'll change the status accordingly.

Best regards Thorkil
