Honestly, that seems like a _good_ habit to me, since if you commented on
it, presumably, you care about it. I'd miss a lot more if I had to remember
to manually subscribe to each bug that I commented on. But either way, it's
a moot issue with regards to D stuff going forward, since we'll be using
github instead, for better or worse, and we'll get whatever behavior they
have. I _think_ that they also subscribe you to any issues that you comment
on, but I haven't reported or commented on issues much on github previously,
so I don't remember for sure. I guess that I'll have to watch out for that.

I also got quite a few e-mails, and I likely would have gotten _way_ more if
the migration bot were commenting on issues that had been closed as well.
But I'm also perfectly fine with getting e-mails for all of the various
issues that I've created or commented on. It helps me keep track of things.
