I do not know the host. Don would know better. But I don't think it's
a good idea to do that. If anything, we want to be more restrictive in
what we redirect to [EMAIL PROTECTED] rather than in what
we let through to the mailing-list. Otherwise, the day the emacsbugs
email happens to come from some other machine, we could end up with
a forwarding loop.
It's not terribly serious if a few messages go straight to the
mailing-list without being fed through [EMAIL PROTECTED]
