Every once in a while whenI try to send email via the web interface of
Request Tracker, I get an Apache Internal Server Error. It does not
happen all the time. I think (but have been unable to verify) that it
happens when I either Reply or Comment and cc/bcc other people.
The error log reveals:
[Thu Oct 19 11:51:15 2000] [error] [client 10.0.0.191] Premature end of
script headers: /usr/local/rt/bin/cgi/webrt.cgi
Could not send mail 
Tried to launch this command: /usr/lib/sendmail -oi -t -ODeliveryMode=b
-OErrorMode=m
[Thu Oct 19 11:51:20 2000] [error] [client 10.0.0.191] Premature end of
script headers: /usr/local/rt/bin/cgi/webrt.cgi
I am running Apache 1.3.6 and RT 1.0.4 on Solaris 7 with Sendmail 8.9.3
Has anyone else had this problem?
Thanks,

Has anyone else had this problem?
Yep, just started happening for me. Looking deeper into it, my
guess is that sendmail ignored the -OErrorMode=m and gave an
error direcctly instead, which RT didn't now how to handle.
I haven't yet tracked down why sendmail would do that.
(Oh hey, tell random people at Xigo I said hi until you find
one who knows me...there's a whole bunch.)

I think my problem was due to a poor configuration of sendmail (actually a lack
of ever configuring it on that box…). I was unable to send email via the web
interface when I cc’d or bcc’d email to unqualified userids (ie. cc: stephany
rather than cc:stephany@xigo.com).
By setting these two sendmail options, I fixed that problem:
# who I masquerade as (null for no masquerading) (see also $=M)
DMxigo.com
# who gets all local email traffic ($R has precedence for unqualified
names)
