It wouldn't surprise me that the problem is that ~ in mhaltmsg. Is that
actually being expanded? If you run send with -debug, do you maybe
see a message saying "$mhaltmsg mismatch"?
How annotations work is a bit magical. send sees that the 'mhannotate'
variable is set, opens a file descriptor and passes that descriptor down
to post(8) using the -idanno flag. Post then writes the address information
to the anno descriptor (which is a tmp file which has been unlinked)
and then send(1) reads that file and uses it to construct the annotation.
But there's a check in sendsbr.c:anno() to make sure the stat() information
of the filename in mhaltmsg matches what is being passed in as the
original filename; that will fail silently without -debug if there
is a mismatch.
