Above and on the meta tracker issue I filed, it sounds like Martin is saying that the e-mails should never be going to python-dev (or tracker-discuss) in the first place -- due to a roundup bug and because the e-mail is already being sent to the submitter and the roundup admins. Thus, changing the from address would only mitigate the problem and not be fixing the root cause. --Chris _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
