User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; de; rv:1.9.1.7) Gecko/20091222 SUSE/3.5.7-2.3 Firefox/3.5.7 Please enable the feature in Bugzilla to change my email address. The address under which my account runs is no longer valid. Reproducible: Always

By random, I found this bugreport, so I could change my email address. There's should be at least a link in bugzilla which tells me, where I can change my email address!
P.S. I'd to verify my new email address twice. First there came an automatic email where I had to click a link. From: Novell Account <webmaster@novell.com> Subject: Customer Center Profile Update - Verification Required Then, when opening https://bugzilla.opensuse.org I was redirected here: https://secure-www.novell.com/selfreg/jsp/protected/validateEmail.jsp There I'd to request another verification code. So I got another email: From: Novell Account <webmaster@novell.com> Subject: Novell Login Success In that email was a code I'd to enter on that website.
P.S. https://bugzilla.opensuse.org keeps redirecting me to a message, saying: Please confirm that your email address is valid by clicking here[1] and following the instructions. If you have already done so, please log out[2] and log back in. [1] https://secure-www.novell.com/selfreg/jsp/protected/validateEmail.jsp [2] https://esp.novell.com/AGLogout After some tries (logout, logging back in, entering verification code) it looks like now I can finally use bugzilla.opensuse.org again.
Currently, the link to change your profile is located on the help page (which can be accessed from the home page or the announcement message that is currently displayed. I will be including the proper method to change email address in the 'Account Information' tab in an upcoming Bugzilla update.
Combining this bug with the similar bug 905822 (same fix will resolve both issues) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 905822 ***
