The bug control mailserver is cont...@bugs.debian.org, for which -1 doesn't apply unless you've used `clone`. The initial population of -1 only applies to the Control: pseudoheader, and that pseudoheader is documented here: https://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting#control It seems reasonable to https://www.debian.org/Bugs/Developer#followup to https://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting#control (and the other pseudoheaders that are valid for follow up messages), but that documentation doesn't belong in the server-control documentation. -- Don Armstrong https://www.donarmstrong.com I learned really early the difference between knowing the name of something and knowing something -- Richard Feynman "What is Science" Phys.
