This usually happens when Bugzilla is unable to send an e-mail for the first change. If you can reproduce this error, then we can fix it (i.e. find out why the e-mail is not being sent the first time). If you cannot reproduce, there is nothing we can do to fix this issue.

In that case I believe the old change should be simply discarded instead of sending bogus information.  The fact that bugzilla is blaming me for things I never did makes me slightly uneasy.

This is another example:

I only added myself to CC.

In the see also bug, we will fix the e-mails so that even when we send multiple e-mails, they will have separate headers for each person making the change. The e-mail headers will still only refer to the person making the last change.

Comment 8 Simon Green 2013-12-06 04:40:13 UTC
This change is now live. If there are any issues, do not reopen this bug.
Instead, you should create a new bug and reference this bug.
