Bug reporting?

How do you file bug reports for this software, anyhow? The “bug
reporting” link from Best Practical’s website just shows me a list of
(presumably) open bugs.

Quick summary to see if anyone else has run into this.

I’ve got a spam message (saved if anyone is interested) that has nothing
but <<< No Message Collected >>> in the body that was generating this
error report trying to get through the mailgate:

RT server error. The RT server which handled your email did not behave as expected. It said:

System error

error:
Can’t call method “as_string” on an undefined value at /opt/rt3/lib/RT/Attachment_Overlay.pm line 163.

163: my $Body = $Attachment->bodyhandle->as_string;

(I’ve got the whole report saved, too.)

Irritating thing was that it ended up in a deferred delivery loop, and
every attempt that was made to deliver resulted in my Ticket ID index
being incremented, but the tickets not being available for viewing.

[crit]: Transaction not committed. Usually indicates a software fault.
Data loss may have occurred (/opt/rt3/bin/webmux.pl:131)

was logged every time the message broken message failed to deliver. The
result of all this is that my ticket #s are weirdly ordered now, with
lots of tickets that can not be opened filling in various gaps.

The section “BUGS” in the readme tells you what to do.

Can you send us the original spam? (Send it directly to me or gzip it as
an attachment when sending to rt-bugs). Without the test-case, we can’t
do much. It sounds like the spam is mal-formed in a way that’s causing
the MIME parser to die.
