Description nowm 2015-08-17 10:03:51 UTC 
Hello, 

I did not create, nor I did ask to create an e-mail address, *@netbeans.org which is used to forward mail to my *@yandex.ru mailbox. Right now I have some spam which is addressed to the *@netbeans.org.

Can I somehow remove any *@netbeans.org to *@yandex.ru mail forwarding?

Is it possible to edit initial bug report to mask sensitive data? I thought this bug will not be visible to all.

Hello Sergey, which address do you want to use for e-mail notifications from NetBeans Bugzilla then?

As for the deletion of your e-mail address, please understand that this is an open source project so we share source code with community, we share Wiki pages, we share mailing lists, we share bugs with each other etc. But let me try something...

Deleting the whole account would be OK. Is it possible? I've created it to report a bug for a NetBeans plug-in some time ago, but I was not expecting I will have an alias is bound to my e-mail. Since I've registered here I've received two e-mails for ***@netbeans.org, both are spam.

Sorry, I forgot to say, Hello, Jiri. :)

As you can see we have modified the database to remove your e-mail addresses. Furthermore right after this comment I am going to disable your nowm@netbeans.org account. Should you have more questions, don't hesitate to drop me an e-mail at jiri.kovalsky@oracle.com.

nowm account is no longer active. Closing as fixed.
