New submission from Marc-Andre Lemburg:

Issue https://bugs.python.org/issue31530 use a title "[2.7] Python 2.7 
readahead feature of file objects is not thread safe" for the ticket. When 
trying to reply to ticket items via email, roundup sent back an error message 
stating:
"""
There were problems handling your subject line argument list:
- not of form [arg=value,value,...;arg=value,value,...]

Subject was: "Re: [issue31530] [2.7] Python 2.7 readahead feature of
file objects is not thread safe"
"""

Apparently, it was picking up the "[2.7]" as an argument indicator. Removing 
the "[2.7]" from the title made the problem go away.

Since I don't think anyone (apart from maybe Roundup itself) is using [...] for 
passing arguments to it, it would probably be better to disable such parsing 
logic for email messages altogether or at least filter/quote and such 
occurrences in ticket titles so that they are not parsed.

Thanks.
