Actually, here is what happens.
Bug gets filed.
Debbugs saves original email as .report.
Bug gets closed.
Debbugs reads .report, and does a textual concatentation of the original
report, and the -done mail. This appending does not take into account any
mime settings of the -done mail.
Mail gets sent to originator.
This is why -done mails look so wrong.
