[note added CC to php-notes]
This has been discussed in the PHP-Notes list. In the
end it was decided that instead of getting a blank
email, we would opt for having it to default to
php-general. IMHO, we should just keep it blank and
reject submissions w/ invalid emails.
When I made the "reject" option mechanism, an email
will be send to the user who posted the note, execpt
if it is one of the php lists. That email contains a
copy (almost verbatim) of the clear instructions in
the form used to post notes, which says (paraphrasing)
"no bugs, no support questions, etc., only
contributions/clarifications to the manual entries".
If people post incorrect notes if, as James said it,
they do not (want to) read, or perhaps they do not
care to read, the instructions.
