how to make the bug tracker not to acknowledge each message?

how to make the bug tracker not to acknowledge each message?

[Dan Nicolaescu]

For each email sent to the backtracker it sends back a message with the subject:

bug#XYZ: Info received (bug#XYZ: blah blah)

How does one stop it from doing that?
Should it do this by default?

admin/notes/bugtracker

** To not get acknowledgement mail from the tracker,
add an "X-Debbugs-No-Ack:" header (with any value).

Thanks, but this forces one to do something for every single message.
Is there a way to do it once and for all?
(if anyone has the gnus incantation to do the above automatically,
please post it here)

Is this a good default?  After all people don't really expect
acknowledgments for email in general...

Not AFAIK.

Add an element to gnus-posting-styles, eg:

("gnu-emacs\\(-pretest\\)?-bug"
         ("X-Debbugs-No-Ack" "yes"))
