Yes, I am aware of that policy section that lacks any specifics.

I'm afraid I don't understand what that means. How do people contact me
through the BTS? If its not through debb...@bugs.debian.org,
debb...@busoni.debian.org, nore...@release.debian.org,
ow...@bugs.debian.org, or ow...@busoni.debian.org then I do not
understand how an individual can contact a package's listed address
through the BTS. 

I'm sorry I must seem dense here, but perhaps you could provide me with
an example?

I wont whitelist the entire BTS mail server, not without a more narrow
definition of where things are coming from.
