Bug#370725: reading commands from regular emails to bug records



Package: debbugs
Severity: wishlist

BTS commands are of the following form:

  /^[[:alpha:]]+[[:space:]]+[[:digit:]]{6}.*/

I somehow think that this is enough to be able to actually parse all
incoming mail, not just mail to control@bugs.debian.org. Has this
been considered? It would eliminate one source of error, namely
forgetting to bcc control@bugs.debian.org.

The implementation could actually limit the commands to the current
bug number (as well as -1,-2,-3,etc to support cloning).

Thanks for consideration.
