Just on this one, can we get the mailing list to help now we're moving to a new infrastructure? I was already thinking of asking if it could reject email with html parts rather than simply losing it, but perhaps it could reject threaded submissions where the cover letter isn't correctly cc'd? I know that's a big ask because there has to be an easy way to recognize them (heuristics on the PATCH tag?) and a way to recognize missing cc's (perhaps simply that someone cc'd on the threaded [PATCH x/y] reply isn't cc'd on [PATCH 0/y]?)
