[Dune] Flyspray spammer

[Matthias Wohlmuth]

  just another idea when it comes to new features.... ;-)
IMHO it would be also great to have a silent-mode feature which allows 
admins to modify tasks without generating automatic notifications to all 
subscribers. This would avoid that every spam message results in another 
delete-spam message to the list. Or perhaps use a special spam-subject, 
such that the users on the list can filter it.
