Package: debian-reference
Version: 2.50
I was unable to use direct e-mail at the time of my Debian installation,
so I couldn't report bugs in a straightforward way.
I did a workaround by composing the message on one machine, then mailing
it from another.
Add citation of 5.4.7 for those using an alternative to direct e-mail
in section A.4
Have a look at:

We probably don't want to include every corner case in the installation-guide,
to avoid it being blowed up unnecessarily.
So I'm closing this bug.
