Thanks for the hint and for actually pulling it in! > BTW: I did not understand yet whether I can use X-Debbugs-CC after > the initial > bug report. X-Debbugs-Cc is only useful for initial submission. When reporting a bug, you do not yet know what number is going to be assigned, so if you Cc someone, they won't know either. In contrast when using X-Debbugs-Cc, the submission mail is only copied after the number is assigned and the message is modified to include the assigned number. In a follow up mail you directly put the corresponding bug in To or Cc, so other recipients can look up the number there.
