Does address@hidden send to the bug submitter as it
does on the Debian BTS? Could that address be automatically added to
the Mail-Followup-To header generated by the BTS?
Let me tell the tale. Recently there was a bug that was closed with a
message to 123-done. That is standard. This generated the following
BTS message:
Date: Sat, 03 Nov 2012 12:08:45 -0700
From: Paul Eggert <address@hidden>
To: Ganton <address@hidden>
Cc: address@hidden
Subject: bug#12794: Bug in dd: it sends wrong messages to stderr
Resent-From: Paul Eggert <address@hidden>
Mail-Followup-To: address@hidden, address@hidden
This means that follow-ups to the message will not go back to the bug
submitter since it does not include the bug submitter address in the
Mail-Followup-To header.
Of course this has been a long standing issue with the Debian BTS too.
I always subscribe to any bug I comment upon. (I actually have my
procmailrc do this for me automatically to work around this issue
since I have been left out of critical exchanges otherwise.)
If we could add 123-submitter to the Mail-Followup-To line then
mailers would do the right thing. WDYT?
Example:
Mail-Followup-To: address@hidden, address@hidden, address@hidden
