This bug, first opened almost 7 years ago, originally concerned the fast
that emails sent through lists.dmarc.org were violating DMARC, causing
bounces, and in general causing mayhem for domains with p=reject DMARC
policies and users whose mail providers enforce DMARC.

Since then it appears that lists.dmarc.org was fixed, bug
bugs.debian.org is still broken. I reported a couple of bugs to
bugs.debian.org recently for the first time in a while, and I see from
my incoming DMARC aggregate reports that I've received hundreds of
notifications about invalid notification emails sent as a result by
bugs.debian.org.

My domain has a p=reject DMARC policy, which means that users whose
email providers enforce DMARC (pretty much all the major email providers
nowadays) simply aren't going to see the emails about the bugs I report.
This is going to be true for a lot of people, and it significantly
hampers the effectiveness of the bug-tracking system.

I don't even know if the maintainers of the packages I report bugs about
see my bugs. They may have no idea they were filed, because their email
providers bounced the notifications or put them into their Spam folders.

The last activity recorded for this bug was nearly two years ago.

FYI Ubuntu fixed this issue in Launchpad something like a year ago.

It sure would be nice if Debian fixed it.
