+** Not receiving messages in response to your control commands?
+The messages debbugs sends out in response to control-server commands
+always have headers To: address@hidden, and Cc: address@hidden
+(the latter is an alias for the emacs-bug-tracker mailing list).
+These are also the addresses to which a copy of the response is sent.
+(In general, there need not be any relation between the To: and Cc:
+headers visible in a message and where debbugs actually sends it.)
+If you used an X-Debbugs-No-Ack header, however, a copy is _not_ sent
+to you, but the To: header is unchanged.  If you are subscribed to the
+emacs-bug-tracker mailing list and have duplicate suppression turned
+on, the presence of your address in the To: header will cause Mailman
+to not send you a list copy, because it thinks you have received a
+direct copy.  If you used X-Debbugs-No-Ack, this is not the case, and
+you won't get any copy at all.  If this bothers you, don't use both
+X-Debbugs-No-Ack and Mailman duplicate suppression for the
+emacs-bug-tracker mailing list, just pick one or the other.
