Don't do that.) And this has been my work flow all along. I'm very conscience of taking someone's email and publishing it in a "Reported-by". I will first send an email to the submitter and ask if it is OK to include them if they sent me the bug report privately. But yes, if someone sends me a report and Cc's LKML, I will add the Reported-by with the email address that they used to a public address without any confirmation. -- Steve
