The initial synchronization phase seems to have passed, but I'm still gettin quite a few bugwatcher updates. Is there a way to disable those mails? As I follow upstream reports that I'm interested in directly those mails only fill up my mailbox without having any value to me. And just because I subscribe to an Ubuntu bug doesn't mean I want to have the whole upstream discussion pushed onto me.
It might be a nice feature for most members, but not for me.

Regards,
Philip.
