That would be great

I think the problem with that is that it isn't in bold, it kind of
blends in with the page.  I know that it had been there a while before
I finally noticed it, although I had been attaching logs prior to that
message being put there.  I think that a notice in the email at the
very top right before the link would be noticable enough to where
people would see it in >90% of the cases when they would have hit
reply otherwise.

Another solution I thought of would be to just set wine-bugs@ to
either bounce messages back to the sender with undeliverable address,
or redirect it to /dev/null, although neither of those would be as
helpful as James' or my own ideas.

Last solution, although I personally don't like it would be to have
reply-to set to wine-devel@
