Description Peter Bowen 2002-12-22 11:57:26 EST

In bugzilla 2.8 there was a way to get bugzilla to email the reporter the bug
report they just entered.  This was, in my opinion, a very useful feature as I
don't always remember the details of a report and don't want to open a browser
and login to view the bug.

Do you have your email settings set to only send mail for changes made for other
people? If you do then you will not receive email for changes you make or bugs
you submit. You should uncheck this if you want to receive an email for bugs you
have submitted. You may also fine tune this functionality with the chart at the
bottome of the page.

Hey, Dave. :-)  I'm re-opening this because I have my preferences set so that I
[should] get e-mail on *all* my bug reports and I'm not getting any messages
although I've filed ~10 of them today (31-Dec).

I'll close this for Dave.  The option is there, see Bug #80238 for the exact
option.  It is easy to overlook, hence 80238.
