Package: reportbug
Version: 6.6.5
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

If your SMTP settings are incorrectly configured, such that reportbug cannot
send mail (for example, the wrong port is selected), then there's no way to
save the details of the bug you have entered. After the connection fails, you
are presented with the question "Do you want to retry" - "Yes" immediately
retries with no other options, and "No" results in "Press enter to exit" with
no other options.

There should be a way to either save your bug and then reload it after fixing
your SMTP settings, or else adjust your SMTP settings and try again, without
exiting.

this is possible already (i simulated this adding an iptables REJECT
rules for reportbug.d.o):

Connecting to reportbug.debian.org via SMTP...
SMTP send failure: [Errno 101] Network is unreachable. Do you want to
retry (or else save the report and exit)? [Y|n|q|?]? ?
Y - (default) Yes, please retry.
n - No, save and exit.
q - Quit.
? - Display this help.
SMTP send failure: [Errno 101] Network is unreachable. Do you want to
retry (or else save the report and exit)? [Y|n|q|?]? n
