The thing is, if you close a bug report via `Bcc: 
999999999999-close@bugs.debian.org` then the mail that arrives at the 
BTS does *not* have the 999999999999-close@bugs.debian.org address in 
the email header but only in the mail envelope - that is, when 
connecting the sending MTA will tell the BTS MTA "RCPT TO: 
999999999999-close@bugs.debian.org"
and that's it. This will close the bug, but the address 
999999999999-close@bugs.debian.org will not be visible in the email 
that's archived...

Not sure why people are using `Bcc: 999999999999-close@bugs.debian.org` 
in the first place. To hide that 999999999999-close@bugs.debian.org 
address from spammers? But then all the other addresses are visible...?
