X-actly. No need for the smiley. Apart from the maintenance issue, we
also have the problem of spam injection, aggravated by the fact that
Jitterbug is chopping headers off incoming mail, so that it looks like
it comes from us. We did get blackholed at one point - the entire
pubhealth department...

It would be a no-brainer to switch to Bugzilla, were it not for the
3000 or so messages that are already sitting in the Jitterbug
database.
