There are plans to merge @packages.d.o and @packages.QA.d.o, so that both reach the maintainer and the PTS subscribers. The QA address requires the presence of an X-PTS-Approved header to let a message reach <package>@p.q.d.o, but I never asked Frank what his plans about this wrt the merge were. If @packages.d.o addresses are really such a big source of spam, we could require the header for both domains, which isn't _that_ disruptive if we assume most users of @p.d.o addresses are developers, and not end users.
