The #Debian bug reporting system (https://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting) is a blast from the past, and something that I try to avoid if I can. Currently debugging a bug report I sent a few days ago by e-mail, but which never made it into the bugtracker (no error response either) 🙄
Did you use the Debian reportbug tool?
I think it's very important to use the BTS.
One thing that took me quite some time to find out: you can run reportbug without configuring a local mailserver, using the "smtphost reportbug.debian.org" configuration entry.
