Description Steve Dickson 2005-09-29 14:37:08 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041020

Description of problem:
If there was a 'X-Bugzilla-Status:' in  Bugzilla's mail header
it would allow people to filter out mail that is not interesting
to them. For example, engineering types could filter out the
following:
    X-Bugzilla-Status: ON_QA
    X-Bugzilla-Status: PASSES_QA
    X-Bugzilla-Status: RELEASE_PENDING

This would allow the volume that Bugzilla generates
to me more manageable... imho...

PS. while your there... you might as well as put in
a 'X-Bugzilla-Resolution:' as well since it could be
useful as well... 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Generate mail
2.
3.

Eventually the whole bug report will be in the mail headers and will no longer
need the body itself ;) Just kidding, I will see about adding these in as well.

Well feel free to remove anything I don't want... :)

Comment 3 Steve Dickson 2005-12-01 13:59:06 UTC
Is there any progress on this?

Comment 4 Steve Dickson 2006-08-14 12:52:16 UTC
Hello... hello... Calling from the depths of the deep whole.. anybody up there? :)

Now that PM has bots going through and change flags which generates
mails to everyone but them... We really need away to filer out this
needless, time wasting mail...
