Comment:
Yes, Trac sends an email for every ticket where you've been involved:
added yourself in Cc, left a comment, etc. Indeed, that makes the Cc field
useless for unsubscribing — you can only subscribe :)
I think that some contributors rely on this behavior. At least I do — my
email filters put emails sent to django-updates in different mailboxes,
depending on whether I've been involved on the ticket (e.g. I've left a
comment) or not. So it would be best best to provide a way to disable it
on a per-user basis.
I suspect there's a custom post-commit hook that sends the email to the
address you used to sign up here:
https://www.djangoproject.com/accounts/register/ [[BR]]
Unfortunately, these configurations aren't available in a public
repository; could a core developer confirm?
Apparently, there's no way to change or remove it:
https://github.com/django/djangoproject.com/blob/master/django_website/accounts/urls.py
[[BR]]
I think an opt-out feature should be added to the website, and the post-
commit hook should be updated appropriately.
