So everyone posting to that list who wants his mails to be read by that
user needs to go through that person's reply script?

That's absurd.  If everyone on d-devel did that, everyone who posts would
get thousands of those.

(That isn't a problem with the idea of using it on the BTS; it's just a
really bad idea for users on a mailing list.)

(The bugs make Debian look bad?  I assume you mean "all that spam on
the bug reports".  Stopping spam won't fix any real bugs. :)

Spam makes spammers look bad, not Debian.  Everyone gets spam.  It's
annoying, nothing more.
