I have amended the default settings so the reporter will now get a confirmation when filing a bug and some other side changes Anyone in Developer state should be able to self configure their account to receive notifications of all new bugs as well. If you are not, please file a bug against: 'Mantis BT @ CentOS' as to your account (that I will see along with a couple of other admin rights accounts) and I'll examine. Fair warning: watching every new bug exposes you to the spam the tracker gets; it is perhaps better to subscribe to the RSS feeds, and to 'monitor' bugs of interest Anyone with an account can 'monitor' an issue, and see all subsequent changes I think there is a usage issue in play here, in not 'grokking' the tool's workflow by and large [except for the now changed initial report mailer mentioned above] We get spammers all the time into the tracker ... I see 26 new ones in the last week, 400 never used accounts, and over 6000 accounts overall. Of those, only 57 are active. I do occasional 'pruning' of 'never used' accounts, as a person so pruned, if real, can simply re-sign up, and if USING the account, will never see the pruning hook -- Russ herrold
