My first thought:  have "do-not-reply" go to /dev/null.

Second thought:  some CPAN authors are just jackasses;  ignore them!

Third thought:  yeah, "find-a-tester" is a bit of a pain to get to quickly
-- and I know I'm less likely to follow up on reports now because of the
extra number of steps that interrupt my day (compared to back when I could
just hit "reply")

Maybe the email should be multipart with an HTML part with nice links:

    - FAIL [view report] [view sender email address]

The latter can just be a link to the cgi script like so:

http://stats.cpantesters.org/cgi-bin/cpanmail.cgi?nntpid=[% id %]

Or, frankly a "contact author" mailto link would be better.  Or a link to a
form that emails the sender.
Whatever.
