--- Comment #18 from Nemo <[email protected]> --- (In reply to comment #15) > I'm having a very difficult time understanding what you're trying to say in > this comment. It looks like someone changed a few bug properties in December > 2011 (in good faith, we assume). I don't know about those messages specifically, but the problem was that occasionally some address of the kind [email protected] would mark hundreds of bugs fixed or reopened or assigned, which then someone had to revert all across bugzilla. I remember this happening several times and each of them I received dozens of notifications, very confusing at first (especially if you don't know they were impersonating accounts), so that *was* major disruption. Again, I have no idea what would be the best way to deal with the problem; and sure, it's nothing irreversible so we could as well just restore editbugs for all and see what happens: but this doesn't mean the problem doesn't exist. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
