I'm (again) not really sure what you mean with these paragraphs, but the message > Subject: Bug#684128: Info received ("When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty > said...) > Message-ID: <handler.684128.b684128.136491666013227.acki...@bugs.debian.org> > References: <20130402083114.6bba69b4.ian_br...@fastmail.net> (for reference, that mail is available online at http://lists.debian.org/20130402083114.6bba69b4.ian_br...@fastmail.net) looked a lot like non-sense spam to me and I reported it as such in the BTS. And obviously the one reading that report was of the same opinion. I wouldn't be surprised if others hit the "Send a report that this bug log contains spam" link after that mail of yours, too. If you want to make comments about bugs that people should actually read, please make sure that your mail is concise and does not tell fairy tales to hide your intent. The BTS is no literature contest. TIA.
