I'd be curious to know when you observed that, as I can find no trace
of such a message being carried by Bluemchen in recent times for that
address aside from one which was successfully delivered to you on Jun
29 at 17:14:37 UTC.

The behaviour you are describing was at one point provided by a custom
patch we had to support legacy behaviour. I'm not sure when it was
removed (my mail archives indicate it was sometime in late 2015), but
I know it did generate quite a few complaints when we did remove it.

In regards to the above points, Bugzilla has been configured to use
it's own envelope sender, bugzilla_nore...@kde.org, as evidenced by
the following log entry:

Jun 29 17:14:23 bluemchen postfix/qmgr[452]: 4EEF2100B8B:
from=<bugzilla_nore...@kde.org>, size=2457, nrcpt=1 (queue active)

and also confirmed by the following lines from mail headers on a
Bugzilla mail I received directly on June 28:

Received: from www-data by bugs.kde.org with local (Exim 4.82)
(envelope-from <bugzilla_nore...@kde.org>) id 1fYKZ8-00035U-0m for
bcooks...@kde.org; Thu, 28 Jun 2018 00:13:38 +0000
From: bugzilla_nore...@kde.org
To: bcooks...@kde.org

Therefore all 3 points you've mentioned are all resolved, and have
been for some time.
