And unless your someone from @redhat.com, not sure there is anything you
need to be telling him what he can/can't do on their own mailing lists
(unless we are talking spamming it, abusing or that type thing), whether
it's useful (to you?) or not.

Besides, maybe the bug # was posted to @redhat.com folks or someone
already know of it from Red Hat and he was just posting what is already
known.
