We had a Bugzilla user who filed a couple of enhancement requests and
for whatever reason included a large list of email address in the Cc:
fields. If you are annoyed, please send him a mail and ask him to stop
this.

Hi,

Well, if the problem is due to a one-time error, I guess it will not 
happen again(*). I was more afraid of having been added by mistake to 
the list of people who received automatic emails from bugzilla if a bug 
report is opened for a component (I hope what I mean is clear enough :-/ ).

Thanks for the explanation,

Best regards,

Olivier.
(*) If it were to happen again, I would follow your advice.

[Gimp-user] bugzilla spamming gimp users ?

2007-11-06 Thread olive
Dear all,

I was away for 5 days and have 20+ messages from gimp buzilla in my 
inbox. I am in the CC field of new bugs... why ?
I noticed that more than half of the bugzilla messages I received result 
from 2 other people removing themselves from the CC list, so we are at 
least three receiving undesired messages from bugzilla when new bugs are 
opened.

Is this a known issue ? Could you fix it if not already fixed ? TIA.

Best regards,

Olivier

If you didn't add yourself, then most likely because one of your bugs
was resolved as a duplicate.

 I noticed that more than half of the bugzilla messages I received result 
from 2 other people removing themselves from the CC list, so we are at 
 least three receiving undesired messages from bugzilla when new bugs are 
 opened.

You can configure what events will sent mails in your Bugzilla preferences.


HTH,
Michael

When you file a bug with bugzilla there is a box you can check if you want
to be informed if there are changes made related to that bug.  Those changes
included when someone is added or removed from the cc list.  If you have
reported a bug and that box was checked, this could be why you're receiving
these messages.

Adding and removing people from the cc list happens a lot.  Bugs get
reasssigned, marked as duplicates and people who checked the box when filing
a bug, hoping to hear that it has been fixed, also get all these other
messages, in addition to one every time someone removes their own address
from the cc list.

Try following the link in one message from each unique bug number and see if
that is the issue.

If it is a bug in bugzilla, this list is not the place to go to get it
fixed.  Not sure exactly where, but there must be a bugzilla
*for* bugzilla.

Mike
