For many years, savannah trackers mails from my tracker items started out with
"From: Bruno Haible <INVALID.NOREPLY@gnu.org>". This told the recipient
immediately that they should not reply by mail, but instead reply through the
bug tracker.

Now, for two weeks (more precisely, since
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=administration/savane.git;a=commitdiff;h=940893361e4e6d9ce2b5c010613595b83c80529f
), the sent mail contains
1) a line "Include the next line when replying by email."
2) a CC such as 362990-bugs-savannah <savannah-trackers@gnu.org>
which makes the recipient think that they can / should reply by mail.

Please provide a way to turn this off on a per-project/package basis.

Rationale: I can handle discussions on a mailing list. I can handle
discussions in a bug tracker. But discussions that start in a bug tracker and
then continue on a mailing list are a big mess.

For example, a ticket started here: https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?66089
and the reporter then replied by mail here:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/libffcall/2024-08/msg00003.html
This is madness. How am I, as a package maintainer, supposed to keep the
ticket in sync?
