Package: reportbug
Version: 4.12.6
Severity: minor
When running "reportbug --configure" one of the questions asked
is:
Does your SMTP host require TLS authentication?
This phrasing is confusing, as it seems to ask if the SMTP host
requires TLS authentication of the user (via client certificates
or SRP), which a few SMTP hosts might do. I believe a much
better phrasing would be:
Use TLS to encrypt the SMTP host login?
The proposed phrasing more accurately reflect that TLS is used
for encrypting the SMTP connection (and maybe for authenticating
the server), but not for any authentication required by the
server. The phrasing mentions "login" to avoid misleading users
into thinking Debian bug reports are somehow secret or private,
when in fact the Social Contract requires them to be published.
Thus the only thing really protected by the encryption is the
password login to the SMTP host.
