Launchpad Spam Email Bug

Asked by davezzsmith

Hello

For some weeks now, I have been receiving 20-30 emails each day, from various people associated with Launchpad, concerning bugs that have been submitted by people other than myself.

I am not subscribed to these bugs and I have no idea why Hillario and others repeatedly spam me, especially as I have emailed them and asked politely to be removed from their email database.

This has now got so bad that i had to delete my inbox contents today, some 500 emails from Launchpad! I'm getting STRESSED about it...

My question is, how do I prevent this sort of unwanted and unsolicited spam from being sent? Or better still, can I remove my email address from my login?

Thank you in advance

Dave Smith

Well its nice to kn ow that i´m not alone on this. We all need the guys at launchpad to sort their own email bugs out, preferably quickly

Hello there; apologies for any messages you may have received in error. I need some more information about the bugmail you're getting; I suspect it may be related to bug 114384: "Dead email accounts cause launchpad to mailbomb and crush subscriber inboxes. Can any of you confirm? If it isn't, can you tell me what bugs are causing you to get mailed so I can try and figure out how to avoid this in the future?

Can you help with this problem?
