If you're listed in the To: or CC: header of an email directly, that mail is being sent from the sender's mail server to gmail. If you're not receiving those, that has nothing to do with the BTS. > Instead, if certain bugs are forwarded through some mailing lists, > e.g. [email protected], debian-emacsen@, etc., I can > receive some of them fine. > > Initially I thought this could be related to Gmail which somehow > filters the email, but another Gmail user reported that they can > receive the email from bugs.debian.org just fine[1]. The thread you referenced there is from January. debian.org servers keep mail logs for a little over a week, so there's no way to track down what happened to a mail to you from the BTS 8 months ago. > So I wonder whether my current > email address is somehow filtered/blocked from the bugs.debian.org > side that prevents my email from being sent to?

If you think there should have been others then you will need to explain what those are so the logs can be checked further. Regards, Adam (sysadmin rather than BTS admin)
