Description Niels de Vos 2016-08-16 08:14:55 UTC 
Description of problem:
Emails from the release job in Jenkins ( https://build.gluster.org/job/release/ ) have jenkins.org as "from" address. Because the release emails are used by the packagers to reply when the packages are available, many packagers receive bounce mails (when they just reply-all).

Please change the from-address for Jenkins jobs to an address that silently accepts (and disregards?) replies.

Another solution is to put a ReplyTo header on the mail, i guess ?

And where do packager reply, ie, does it go to gluster-devel, etc ?

That depends a bit on the job. The release ones go to the maintainers and packagers list. Others are to the maintainers only (I think).

I recommend that release maintainers do the extra work of removing a From. I don't think that's too much of an ask.
