Is this actually such a big problem that there needs to come a separate infrastructure and procedure for punishment? Or does it only happen occasionally and would contacting those maintainers to tell them the results of their actions suffice? > We should *also* have the pts auto-add anyone who does an NMU to receive all > bug reports.

That sounds like a good idea; just send copies to the last uploader if that's not in the list of maintainers. That would also automatically stop the mails to you upon the next maintainer upload.
