    The way to do this is really with procmail on the receiving side

What is "the receiving side"?  Does that mean the server that handles
bug-gnu-emacs?  Or does that mean all the machines of all the
subscribers on the list?

The latter is very bad because it makes hundreds of people do the work
repeatedly.

The former would be fine in theory, but in practice it is hard to do,
because only the FSF sysadmins could do it.  Doing this in the bug
tracker is much easier.
