Description hyper_ch 2013-04-26 21:37:50 UTC 
For the third time I get now spam to an email I address I specifically created for the kde bugtracker. That email address is only used here.... as were the two previous ones.

Still, today I got another spam. So it's obvious spammers do harvest email addresses from here. This needs to stop.

Reproducible: Always

If this happened 3 times, you have missed the privacy notice 3times as wel when signing up, let me paste it again

PRIVACY NOTICE: KDE Bugtracking System is an open bug tracking system. Activity on most bugs, including email addresses, will be visible to the public. We recommend using a secondary account or free web email service (such as Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail, or similar) to avoid receiving spam at your primary email address.
