bugs.maemo.org includes this in the footer of each and every mail it sends:
Replies to this email are NOT read, instead please add comments at
https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=....

I consider it incredibly annoying, because it costs me space (and
time...). Now you might not care, but I've just filled my second
gmailbox using 99.99% bugmail, and every time someone adds an extra
row or two to bugmail, it increase the speed with which i fill my next
mailbox. It also hurts me every time i use a mobile mail client (I'm
currently roaming).

Anyway, it's trivial to implement, and it should be the community's
choice, not mine.

It really depends on the target audience for bugmail. Is the target
audience the guy who filed one bug, or the guy who lives in bugzilla?

Actually, the correct implementation will only include the footer for
the correct audience (the single filer), and it isn't that much harder
to implement, although it certainly requires more work.

have a good weekend.
