Ehm, we do have a separate bugtracker... [1] And you can subscribe to separate 
bugs.

As I stated on my previous mail to Jeffrey, our mailing list is *not* for 
tracking bugs. In fact if a bug is discovered in the course of a discussion we 
*always* ask to report it in bugzilla. So if you want to track specific bugs, 
that's the place to go, not the mailing list.

I don't think mailman (the software running our mailing lists) supports this. 
And as nabble is merely a frontend to our lists, it won't either.
