Package: reportbug
Version: 3.8
Followup-For: Bug #297452

Looking at /usr/share/doc/reportbug/changelog.gz (and the code) the
lack of Bcc is entirely intentional, if bizarre (why?). What irritated
me more than a little is that the documentation is unchanged, so that
I spent quite a while testing my spam filter (is it eating bug
reports) and MTA (it is correctly set up for local delivery?) and
finally reportbug (what is going on?) before finally noticing that
the binary was dated about the same time as the last time I had a CC
for a bug report.

If Bcc lines must be suppressed, please can we have a workaround and
an explanation? Also, please update the docs, because this will cause
great confusion otherwise. My irritation is bounded by the fact that
since we're still in testing there's a certain "caveat downloador".

If there's anything I can do to help fix the docs, do ask.
