This corresponds to our usage on debbugs.gnu.org except
$gControlList. In /etc/debbugs/config we have
## We send to tracker@debbugs.gnu.org.
## This is aliased to emacs-bug-tracker@gnu.org (historical reasons).
$gFowardList = "tracker";
$gDoneList = "tracker";
$gControlList = "tracker";
$gMirrorList = "discard";
## Weekly summary mails.
$gSummaryList = "discard";
## Commented out in our lib/debbugs/process.
$gSubmitList = "discard";
## Rest unused by debbugs?
$gMaintList = "discard";
$gQuietList = "discard";
$gRequestList = "discard";
$gSubmitterList = "discard";
Best regards, Michael.
