I haven't been active in KDE development (as in writing or committing or reviewing code) for almost 10 years (with a few exceptions during some sprints). Before that I have burned myself reading each and every KMail bug report and fixing many of them for a few years. I don't think I'm behaving disrespectful to anybody by filtering out bug reports. Anyway, I have now unsubscribed from the kdepim-bugs mailing list. I should have done this years ago, but I guess I still hoped that I would become more active again someday. Regards, Ingo
