C'mon now.  Even though it may block the bulk update (which is an artificial

| Dear maintainers,

| After reporting a bug earlier today, I got the automated reply from
| mailing list software as shown below. Apparently, the mailing list does
| not accept messages "from those role accounts in Debian used to send
| automated mails regarding the package". To me, this is a violation of
| Debian Policy section 3.3 "The maintainer of a package".
| 
| Please fix this.

| Thanks,
