Package: reportbug
Version: 11.5.0
Severity: normal

after submitting a bug failed, i changed my mta config, and subsequently 
ran "reportbug -r /tmp/reportbug-..." as instructed. as the mail was 
already in its final state, i immediately exited the editor, which lead 
to this weird interaction:

No changes were made in the editor.
Report will be sent to Debian Bug Tracking System <sub...@bugs.debian.org>
Submit this report on reportbug (e to edit) [y|n|a|c|E|i|l|m|p|q|d|t|?]? y
Report is unchanged. Edit this report or quit [E|q|s|?]? s
Sending empty report anyway...
Sending message via /usr/sbin/sendmail...

firstly, in the given case it's rather pointless (and therefore 
confusing) to say that the report is unchanged. to give an accurate 
account, it would have to create a pristine report template from scratch 
and compare the contents.

secondly, it says "sending empty report", which would be confusing even 
if this wasn't a perfectly finalized report, as it actually means 
"sending unmodified generated report" or some such.
