Assuming the emacs developers decide to use debbugs, each bug has it's
own list, and you'll send more information to
bugnum@emacsbugs.donarmstrong.com[1] so thread sorting etc. will all
happen as you're expecting it to, assuming References: and
In-Reply-To: are kept intact by correspondents.

When everything is working normally, you will get such an ack within
minutes of filing a new report (so sending you back the original bug
report wouldn't really be useful.)
