Bug Description

I just attempted to file a bug with reportbug, using 3.41ubuntu2, from up-to-date Intrepid.

It connected to an ubuntu.com SMTP server, but that server rejected the bug mail:
  Submit this report on smuxi-server (e to edit) [Y|n|a|c|e|i|l|m|p|q|?]?
  Connecting to fiordland.ubuntu.com via SMTP...
  SMTP send failure: {'<email address hidden>': (554, '5.7.1 <email address hidden>: Relay access denied'), '<email address hidden>': (554, '5.7.1 <email address hidden>: Relay access denied')}
  Wrote bug report to /tmp/reportbug-smuxi-server-20081208-6803-GOP70d

Sorry about the wasted time while trying to report a bug.
reportbug does not work really for Ubuntu and I'm going to fix this shortly.
For now, I'm marking this bug report as duplicate of bug 123414, which is about this relaying problem.
