Oops, I forgot, flea does check to see if it thinks you are running Debian,
and if so it submits a Cc to the Debian BTS.  But that's only a Cc, the
mutt BTS is the one at guug.de.

mutt-dev is the place where the developers want the bugs to come so that
the appropriate people see them, and if discussion needs to happen, it
happens with the appropriate people around.

It's been established that it's better if they post to much info than not
enough.  That's why flea behaves as it does.  You may not want that
traffic, but that's your own choice about what kinds of lists you yourself
want to monitor.  Bug reports to mutt-dev are expected to be verbose.

Someone moderates those mails.  Usually several someones do.
