Can one just enter in a user's id, and the system will look up the email
address?

The result acually depends on which Trac version you are using. I
hereafter assume you're using 0.9.x:

If the "cc:" field contains a email address, this address email is
used as a recipient address for the notification email.
If the "cc:" field contains a login/username, Trac looks for an email
address for this username - which is the address the user has set in
the "Settings" page. If no address has been defined, no email is sent
to this user.

On 0.10 (i.e. the current trunk) there are more notification options,
which allow for example to resolve the email address from the username
on the local SMTP server.

I believe it's redundant to have to keep entering one's email address as
the reporter or other fields - since the system already knows your address.

I'm not sure what you are referring to here (by "the system"), can you
elaborate?

Cheers,
Manu
