In (GDB) Bugzilla, a link is provided in e-mail messages to the web entry for
the bug report. For example an e-mail with the subject header:
Subject: [Bug varobj/9268] Unicode string support
will have the link:
http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=926
at the end of the message, which can be clicked on in most mail readers to
provide quick access to the full history of the bug report.
Could something similar be done foe Emacs bugs?, e.g., an e-mail with the
header :
Subject: bug#407: gpm server stop making emacs abort()
would have the link:
http://emacsbugs.donarmstrong.com/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=407

FWIW, I made the same suggestion, long ago. This is common in bug trackers that
have an email interface, as it is with online reviewing tools and other
collaborative software.

Don, is there any hope to see this fixed before hell freezes over?

(add-hook 'gnus-article-mode-hook
(lambda ()
(setq bug-reference-url-format
"http://emacsbugs.donarmstrong.com/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=%s")
(bug-reference-mode 1)))
and you can click on the bug number in the subject header.

Or put point on the bug number and do
M-x gnus-read-ephemeral-emacs-bug-group RET.
Bye, Reiner.

As a general rule, please note such things in admin/notes/bugtracker
(added).

Yes, but if it was implemented by the bug tracker it would be available to
those who don't use gnus, or even Emacs for their mail.

Indeed. It's very handy. It also works with just M-x g-emacs-bug RET
(and similarly M-x g-debian-bug RET).
