Take a look at http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3710

bugzilla tries to send a mail to the reporter, it fails ("unknown user account"),
but the error failure is appended as a bugzilla comment. Then bugzilla tries to
send that comment to everyone involved in the bug, including the reporter,
so it fails again.....Houston, we've a endless loop.

There're 540 comments in that bug report already, and the bugme-daemon
mail list is being spammed....
I just sent emails to those who maintain bugzilla software and systems
that run it, hope someone will be online soon to help alleviate
this...
Bugzilla really shouldn't be accepting any mail with empty reverse-path
(MAIL FROM:<>)

Ah, then should be easy fix then. I don't have access to the system
though, will have to helplessly wait until one of the guys picks up...
:(

Sorry, can't fix this - I don't have direct access to the system,
and I don't think the others will be back until Monday ;-(
