That's good, but...

is not so good. If the goal is to ensure that all previous
discussion on a given issue is reliably recorded, then
email replies ought to be archived under the relevant
ticket automatically.

For me at least, having to go somewhere special to
post a reply would be too error-prone. I get a large
number of Python-related messages in my inbox from
a number of sources, and I don't usually pay much
attention to exactly where they're coming from. I just
hit reply-all and trust that it will go somewhere
sensible.
