Bugzilla.com has nothing to do with tracking any kind of software issues. It's
about Volkswagen Bug automobiles.

So use a different name.

bugzilla.com is a site about customized Volkswagen beetles.

Sorry, it is not clear what particular bugzilla instance you are writing 
about. You are sending e-mails and you should be able to register a new 
account. Do you mean that you have managed to upset developers to the 
degree when they decide to ban your active mail address?


.
I thought I made it clear. I've changed ISP's, several times over the 
last 30 years. And I am registered, but the bugzilla software apparently 
sends all correspondence reply's to an old address so I am not able to 
confirm because I never get the confirmation message.  But bugzilla 
knows me by name and I am not me when coming from a new ISP.  The only 
way for me to register is to have the admins nuke me out of the system 
entirely.  Until that is done and I can then register a new account, I'm 
screwed.


I've requested pw resets, never got them, presumable because it sends 
the reset link to a 20 yo address. If you know someone who has admin 
rights and could fix it, put it to me. Mail sent to ad...@bugzilla.com 
bounces.
