Spamming by Bugzilla

[Cir Culars <ci...@gmx.com>]

Hi

Please can you stop - or tell me how to stop - the endless torrent of email bugzilla has been sending me, for months now, despite my best attempts to stop it. Hundreds of them.

There are no unsubscribe links or instructions at the end of the email. 

Often these emails state they have been sent because "You are the assignee for the issue." - see example below. This is entirely false - have never been the assignee of anything. Ever.

All my email preferences in bugzilla are blank except for the two lines of overrides ('but not when…') at the bottom, which are all ticked, and have been set so many times over many months.

'Disable email' has been clicked and confirmed several times over months.

Emailing the administrators at bugzilla has drawn no response or relief.

Sorry to have to trouble you, but have tried all options obvious to me.

Ideally, would have liked to go on receiving mail relating to my bug reports, but nothing else. But am being forced to  unsubscribe as the only way to stop this.

Many thanks and stay happy

This makes me think that you might have subscribed to the "issues" 
mailing list. This list is used as a "default" assignee and indeed it 
receives hundreds of notifications.

Try unsubscribing the issues list (not the "users" list but the "issues" 
list). Relevant addresses are at

This is how it will work if:
1) You unsubscribe from the issues list like explained above
2) You modify your settings (the personal ones) in Bugzilla to receive 
notifications again.

Regards,
   Andrea.
