With GNATS, when a PR was sent to a mailing list, the From: field was
set to the submitter's address.

Now, with Bugzilla, it is always set to bz-noreply@freebsd.org.

When you read a mailing list like freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org, every line
seems a duplicate, and it's less readable.

Would it be possible to set the From: field back to the submitter's
address?

This seems to be standard (and only?) behavior in any instance of
Bugzilla I've been using over the last 10+ years.  

This does not mean it cannot be changed, it just indicates that
this may be hard to change and/or people have been doing this by
design.
Comment 3 Oleksandr Tymoshenko freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2019-01-20 22:13:32 UTC
This behavior is built-in feature of the Bugzilla software. I'm afraid bugmeister@ team doesn't have enough resources to maintain  custom modification of this scale.
