Also, so far as I can tell, neither of those are default cases either. I recall looking at that list for the 'maintainer and submitter' option, and being disappointed not to find one. Am I right that the only way to expliticly mail the submitter and the maintainer is to look the submitter's mail up in the initial bugrep and just CC it, whilst replying to bugnum@b.d.o, which will automatically include the maintainer? (which feels like work the BTS could do for me, maybe even by default). Or should I mail both nnn@b.d.o _and_ nnn-submitter@b.d.o to get the desired effect? Doesn't that result in two mails to debian-bugs-dist, which seems wrong/unhelpful? I can see that the system goes to a lot of trouble to make sure people don't get mail they didn't want, but it seems to make it hard to ensure thast everyone _does_ get responses. Perhaps I am failing to understand how to use it, but in that case I claim that it's not very obvious. I think Stefano accurately described how I think it should work.
