Send the command line you want to be used with query-pr on the subject:
line of a mail addressed to ``query-pr@FreeBSD.ORG''. So if you wanted
to see the full information on PR 724 (for example) send a message
with the subject line of:

Subject: --full 724

For all the command line options to be used with query-pr, you'll have to
find set of gnats docs.

Hope this helps

Gary

P.S. If the PR has the ``confidential:'' line set to `yes', you won't be able
     to retreive the PR via e-mail.
