Personally, I tend to get annoyed by any messages sent after the
"RESOLVED-FIXED" is done.  I do appreciate thanks from users, but a
direct email to the developer in question is much nicer than a bug
comment.  For one, it only goes to the intended audience.  Second, for
those of us that do most of their bug sorting via email, it doesn't give
us a post-resolution email for a bug we've already completed.  Again, it
is just a personal preference, but sending a direct email seems to have
the least possibility of bothering anyone and gives you the ability to
thank the hard worker directly.
