Jer - can you comment on how these changes are getting made? Is this some kind of script, or are you manually making these changes? Either way, could you consider adjusting your practice so that if the only change is to add a period or other trivial modification that you avoid it for the moment? If you're using a script and are willing to accept patches but don't have time to make the changes yourself, consider posting it. Additionally, can anybody who knows more about bugzilla comment on how easy it would be to have some way to mark modifications as trivial, and take this into account in the bugspam? Either make it configurable as to whether users get trivial bugspam (ideally), or at least stick something in the headers that can be filtered on. Just trying to get beyond the complaining and find ways to actually improve things... Rich
