Keep issues@ in bug reports [Was: Request for Bugzilla karma]

Hello,

FWIW...

Confirmed. My last report:
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=128424
has empty "QA contact" and I cannot change it.

issues@ is the default "Assignee" and I cannot change it as well.

thanks for the hint. In the BZ version we are using it's still possible 
to set a default assignee.

However, also here everything is as it should. Every component has 
issues@ as default assignee.

I believe our old (and I don't know how old!) configuration was using 
these settings:
https://www.bugzilla.org/docs/2.18/html/components.html

"The Owner, QA Contact, and Reporter will get email when new bugs are 
created in this Component and when these bugs change. Default Owner and 
Default QA Contact fields dictate the default assignments".

Now, I've never administered Bugzilla so I have no idea where one can 
set those (or even if this is enabled in our current instance), but if 
that can help...

Regards,
   Andrea.

right, issues@ is not the assignee or in the CC list.
When looking into the history of the issue then 2014 the assignee was 
changed away from issues@.

Sorry, not in BZ itself. I've looked into the admin settings but cannot 
find a suitable option.

On "https://bz.apache.org/ooo/enter_bug.cgi" there is also no automated 
assignee.

Even though I can't really find it in older issues like
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=125000
(so I might remember something wrong) I believe we had some Bugzilla 
configuration that would set the QA Contact to issues@ by default. This 
way we didn't have any strange tricks to do when taking/assigning an 
issue, as the QA Contact is a separate field.

Maybe you can find something in the Bugzilla configuration that defines 
the default QA contact? I believe this address receives notifications 
too, so setting it to issues@ would solve the problem.

Regards,
   Andrea.

IMHO we just ned to make sure that isues@ is either the assignee - this 
works as long as nobody is taking over the issue for working on it - or 
it's in the CC list. Then every update on the issue will be posted to 
issues@.

I'm quite sure I've done it already, but I've enabled you for the 
following BZ groups in BZ:

canconfirm: Can confirm a bug or mark it a duplicate
editbugs: Can edit all bug fields
qa-team: Members of the AOO QA team
