The bug tracker component of Launchpad (aka Malone) is heavily influenced by debbugs, and under active and rapid development. https://launchpad.net/products/pgsql/+bugs Its designed to allow tracking of bugs both in the 'upstream' sourcecode, forks and commercial varients, and in the packages distributed by OS vendors.

Current email interface documentation for Malone is on our wiki at https://wiki.launchpad.canonical.com/MaloneEmailInterfaceUserDoc We use it internally the way you describe. -- Stuart Bishop <stuart@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> http://www.stuartbishop.net/
