Yes, he had sent a message to 3938-done@e.d.b. _and_ to you.  If you
reply to that, you need to edit out the "-done" part to prevent
re-closing the bug if you reopened it.

Since this is somewhat confusing, maybe it would be better to only send
bug closing messages to the nnnn-done address and not to the submitter
as well?
