No, <source>@packages.qa.debian.org never forwarded to
<source>@packages.debian.org. It's the other way around.

<source>@packages.qa.debian.org is the old PTS variant
of dispatch@tracker.debian.org and is nowadays just forwarding
to the latter.

It works for whatever you want. Ansgar asked me a few questions on
this topic recently and he said that DAK was already mailing the
maintainer directly so he would certainly just mail the maintainer +
dispatch@tracker.d.o in all cases and never use
<source>@packages.debian.org.
