Yeah, but it really duplicates <pkg>@packages.debian.org which is already
forwarded to the PTS. And direct mails to <pkg>@packages.qa.debian.org
are refused except if they have a magical header X-PTS-Approved which is a
rather unfriendly.
So IMO it's best to keep <pkg>@packages.debian.org as the only public
package-based email and keep forwarding that to the package tracker.
