It's true that we do give e-mailing it as a (less preferred) way for users to submit a bug on http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/ReportABug but I wonder if we shouldn't change that. It's rare that we get a bug report e-mailed, and normally we ultimately end up creating a trac ticket for it anyway. I'm sure that people who really want to submit a bug report and for whatever reason can't use trac will e-mail it somewhere sensible.
+1. ghc-bugs used to be for user-generated bug reports, but now it is almost exclusively Trac-generated emails. I don't think anything is gained by suggesting that people email bug reports any more.
I've removed that option from ReportABug. Thanks Ian
