I totally concur.

We are already treating as RC buggy packages whose maintainer address
bounce; usually corresponding bugs are filed by FTP masters upon upload
(probably because they see the bounce when dak tries to mail them).
I believe we should treat similarly (i.e. RC buggy) packages whose
maintainer address can't be mailed due to mailing list post
restrictions.

Cheers.
