Title:
  manpage confused about mail_badpass vs always_set_home

Status in sudo package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: sudo

  lucid sudoers(5) says

  
         mail_badpass    If set, sudo will set the HOME environment variable to the home directory of the target user (which is
                         root unless the -u option is used).  This effectively means that the -H option is always implied.  This
                         flag is off by default.

  however this description is fairly obviously about always_set_home not
  mail_badpass.
