I've read some bug reports online containing entries saying
"Report forwarded" or "Information forwarded" after
both the initial bug report and any replies.
I thought this kind of entries are generated everytime
any mail is being sent by the bug system.
Reading www.debian.org/Bugs/db/23/23725.html I found
an initial entry "Information forwarded", but no additional
entry after the reassignment.
I thought: No entry --> No mail has been sent.
And I took a part of
www.de.debian.org/Bugs/server-control.html
as a confirmation for my assumption:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
reassign bugnumber package
Records that bug #bugnumber is a bug in package. This can be used to set
the package if the user forgot the pseudo-header, or to change an earlier
assignment. No notifications are sent to anyone (other than the usual
information in the processing transcript).
-------------------------------------------------------------------
If mail is sent to the maintainer on reassignments and
just no entry stating this is generated for some reason
then I am satisfied and will be quiet. ;)
Greetings
Florian
