Description

Another one I've posted to pidgin site. It may be preference or it may be a code issue in Trac. I thought I'd let the Trac people know as well, from an end user perspective, not the owners of the site runing Trac. Thank you.

This is actually about the bug tracking system at http://developer.pidgin.im

From the experience of other bug tracking systems like Mozilla Foundation's bugzilla and Sourceforge's tracker, I suggest an enhancement:

When someone posts a message about a bug (either new submission or reply), the poster should be excluded from the list of people related to that bug to whom an email is sent. I mean, I've posted that message, it seems superflous to get an email with it, only to have one more email to delete from my inbox ...

Duplicate of #2247

As a personal note, I'd like to get a notification for my own bug reports, so it may be superfluous for some people, not for everyone. Anyway the notification system definitely needs to support user preferences.
