Hi,

A few suggestions for the mail to gcc-bugs, taking this recent
message as an example:

PLEASE REPLY TO gcc-bugzilla@gcc.gnu.org ONLY, *NOT* gcc-bugs@gcc.gnu.org.

Can't this be automated?
Actually, it can't, AFAIK.

Well, there's already a Reply-To: header set...

Yes, but i can't automate people doing the right thing.
I can, however, remove the banner, and already planned on it.

Created an attachment (id=4054)
--> (http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=4054&action=view)
Preprocessed file that caused the ICE

Although I really like not getting any useless 500kB+ emails through gcc-bugs anymore, if an attachment is short, can it be sent in the actual email please?

Define short.

Let's just pick a reasonable limit - how about 20K?

Actually, let's not do it.
It's not easy to do, it's cpu consuming (attachments are stored compressed in the db, so i'd have to uncompress the attachments every time we go to send out mail, just to see if they are the right size) first, and second, it's a security risk (auto-distribute hacks by posting them as an attachment).
