Email notifications

Individual bug notifications

Launchpad automatically sends you emails whenever there's an update to a bug that you've reported, is assigned to you or that you've commented on.

You can manually subscribe to any other public bug in Launchpad by visiting the bug page and clicking Subscribe in the Actions menu.

Projects, packages and distributions

If you're listed as the bug contact, or you're a member of a team that is a bug contact, for a package or project you'll automatically receive email about updates to any bugs relating to that package or project.

To receive notifications about a milestone in a project, a distribution (e.g. Ubuntu) or a package or project for which you're not a bug contact, click Subscribe to bugmail in the Actions menu on the milestone, project, package or distribution bugs overview page.
