I definitely do not want this myself and I don't think it is a good idea, for the reasons you mentioned and more importantly for the one I mentioned. If it changes, I would want a way to disable subscription for all bugs I submit. Probably a good idea to have a Subscribe: yes option at submit@ time too. > An alternative, more comprehensive approach, would be: I think it would be enough to just add options for subscription at submit@ time and on a per-email-address basis. Even better would be a full bugzilla-style email preferences thing. -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
