Yes. But this is a bug in DAK, not in tracker.debian.org. There's nothing I can do from the tracker.debian.org perspective. It's a regression introduced by some of the recent changes made by DktrKranz. DAK should not use <source>@packages.debian.org for the initial accepted from NEW mail, it should directly send to dispa...@tracker.debian.org instead (and the maintainer, and the signer of the upload if different). I understand this is an annoying corner case but the only alternative is to have a catch-all email alias on packages.debian.org which will likely drag a lot of spam towards the package tracker. Or maybe the package tracker should become the MX for packages.debian.org and I should handle all incoming mails properly. But the package tracker will not be in any better position to forward the mail to the right person. It will be smarter and not bounce but it will not yet know the maintainer of the source package and will not be able to forward it immediately either.
