As I try to explain on http://debbugs.gnu.org/Using.html, these kinds of changes are not essential to be able to use debbugs, but I wrote the technical details in admin/notes/bugtracker. It requires a mail router rule. A simple alias will not suffice, and would probably cause an infinite loop. An equivalent router rule would have to be implemented by whoever controls gnus.org mail.
