Hmm, reportbug has the --kudos option that would be affected by this: > -k, --kudos > Send appreciative email to the recorded maintainer address, > rather than filing a bug report.

IOW, if $pkg@tracker.d.o discards the mail, this option will stop being useful for Debian packages that uses <package>@tracker.debian.org. (Just reporting the inconsistency. I will not comment on whether the bug goes to reportbug or tracker.d.o) Thanks, ~Niels
