Yeah, that's the problem. I'm not sure how to solve this. When you
send to, say, 4957-quiet@debbugs, the mail header looks like this:
Received: from localhost ([127.0.0.1] helo=debbugs.gnu.org)
by debbugs.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.69)
(envelope-from <debbugs-submit-bounces@debbugs.gnu.org>)
id 1ND2YX-0003mO-6P
for submit@debbugs.gnu.org; Tue, 24 Nov 2009 16:04:13 -0500
Received: from fencepost.gnu.org ([140.186.70.10])
by debbugs.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.69)
(envelope-from <rgm@gnu.org>) id 1ND2YW-0003mJ-En
for 4957-quiet@debbugs.gnu.org; Tue, 24 Nov 2009 16:04:12 -0500
Based on the last "for 4957-quiet@debbugs.gnu.org" line, the script
knows that the email was sent to 4957-quiet prior to going to the
moderation list.
When you send to 4957-quiet@debbugs and BCC control@debbugs, the headers
get stripped out:
Received: from localhost ([127.0.0.1] helo=debbugs.gnu.org)
by debbugs.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.69)
(envelope-from <debbugs-submit-bounces@debbugs.gnu.org>)

I don't know why this happens, but unless someone can think of a fix, it
seems we have to either give up the practice of using BCC to manipulate
bugs, or abandon moderation via mailing list. Thoughts?
