Not everybody hates it, and it's there to dissuade users from replying
to Bugzilla mail by hitting reply in the MUA.

We never supported Bugzilla email interface - it's been fraught with
security holes and bugs, and sucks with spam.

The address of [EMAIL PROTECTED] goes to the group of us that admin
bugzilla (mainly me), and from that alone, I get 4-5 emails a week from
that alias alone. Don't you get random less-than-clueful users emailing
you instead of responding on Bugzilla?
