no, I'm afraid there isn't.  I usually ask a friend on the list.

(BTW, note that this wouldn't work for Fedora: we use bugzilla only, and
reporting to bugzilla.redhat.com _and_ bug-* mail address means extra work
to the user.)

Even though sending a mail to two addresses doesn't present extra work, it
might be confusing.  First, the user might feel weird (``To which of them?
To both?'') but more importantly, it will be confusing when you start two
threads on the two lists.

I don't think the current situation is ideal, but I'm not entirelly happy
about any of the possible alternatives.

Well, I tend to pick the easiest path here.  ;-)

Have a nice day,
