I run a 2.17.7 version of bugzilla that I have tweaked to run under windows. 
The main problem is that I had to replace all SENDMAIL references with SMTP 
references. I have just had a look at 2.18.3 and, if I want to upgrade to that, 
I will have to start the whole process over. It would be of great assistance if 
another perl module were written to interface to SENDMAIL and all other 
bugzilla modules changed to reference this new module. This would mean that 
windows users would just have to change the one module, which would be of great 
assistance.

Reproducible: Always
2.18 doesn't require code changes for sendmail to work - see

2.20 has native support for smtp
