Thanks now I see what went wrong - Tims' fault :) I copied:
watch-serviceability-other at bugs.openjdk.net
but the above should have said
watch-serviceability-other at bugs.openjdk.java.net
Now it works! But I wish it took wildcards :(
Thanks,
David

Brad had to physically demonstrate this to me, I thought maybe I
had some kind of brain injury or something for not understanding it. :^(
Anyway, go to the "New" bug and you can see the components, click
on a component and it will show you who the component is assigned to,
e.g. watch-serviceability-other "at" bugs.openjdk.java.net
Go to your "Preferences->Email Preferences" and copy that email address
in as a "user" into the:
"Add users to my watch list (comma separated list):"
field, then Submit.
So completely obvious <--- sarcasm
don't know what was wrong with me. ;^)

I can't get it to work. Where are the "components" listed? Even
watch-serviceability-other reported "did not match anything" :(
Otherwise great info, but I sure wish it was a lot easier to manage.
Thanks,
David

Thanks Tim. Brad just explained this to me.
I'm setup to watch serviceability and build bugs now.

How could I at least see some email on these bugs?
Aren't they connected to the various openjdk email aliases?
Sorry I'm not bugzilla-savy. :^(
Visit http://bugs.openjdk.java.net/ and log into your bugzilla account
(Sun employee logins are probably firstname.lastn...@sun.com, unless
you set yours up differently)
Visit your Preferences page and click the [Email Preferences] tab:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/userprefs.cgi?tab=email
Scroll down to "User Watching"
Quoting from the OpenJDK Bugzilla announcement page:
There are Bugzilla "watcher" email accounts set up for each
component. (e.g. watch-product-component at bugs dot openjdk dot
java dot net) If you would like to watch for updates to specific
components, set your email watch preferences accordingly.
Here are two that I watch (obfuscated by changing '@' to ' at '):
watch-build-other at bugs.openjdk.java.net
watch-serviceability-other at bugs.openjdk.net
Open a second browser window, go to the basic search page:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/query.cgi
Look at the "Product"s listed.
For example, if you wanted to watch the first product shown (2d)
switch back to your Email Preferences and put in:
watch-2d-other at bugs.openjdk.java.net
(Remember to undo the @ obfuscation)
Hope this helps-
Tim
