152 ** Not receiving messages in response to your control commands?
153 The messages debbugs sends out in response to control-server commands
154 always have headers To: your@email, and Cc: tracker@debbugs.gnu.org
155 (the latter is an alias for the emacs-bug-tracker mailing list).
156 These are also the addresses to which a copy of the response is sent.
157 (In general, there need not be any relation between the To: and Cc:
158 headers visible in a message and where debbugs actually sends it.)
159 If you used an X-Debbugs-No-Ack header, however, a copy is _not_ sent
160 to you, but the To: header is unchanged. If you are subscribed to the
161 emacs-bug-tracker mailing list and have duplicate suppression turned
162 on, the presence of your address in the To: header will cause Mailman
163 to not send you a list copy, because it thinks you have received a
164 direct copy. If you used X-Debbugs-No-Ack, this is not the case, and
165 you won't get any copy at all. If this bothers you, don't use both
166 X-Debbugs-No-Ack and Mailman duplicate suppression for the
167 emacs-bug-tracker mailing list, just pick one or the other.
