Now that you mention it, none the way it works now.  I did try the
suggestion only to have the email set for moderation.  I've since
removed the mingw-notify from receiving the mail for the Bugs ticket
system.  Chris Tsai has moved the ticket to engineering.  But I
suppose we can just live with the subscription system to the ticket
and do away with mingw-notify eventually but I want to keep it around
so that I can test SF changes for the feature.
