Hi,
I would like try another explanation:

I have signed the checkbox
“When I'm the Bug Owner, email me:”
	[x] “When I'm added to or removed from this capacity”
other checkboxes under this section are empty
Under [User preferences]|[Email settings] 

Since I did this change I stop get emails, when the bug was reassign to me.

Any help!?!

Thank you
Michael

-> email notifications & its default owner

With Bugzilla version 2.12 I encountered the same problem as #1 Michael when 
manually reassigning a bug to a user who is neither reporter nor comp owner.
All users have [x] “When I'm added to or removed from this capacity” for Owners.

[e-mail] ist comp owner - he gots mail, [e-mail] is the developer - he 
didn't get any mail.

I've noticed this too, when changing a bug's owner or QA contact, the person 
that it is changed to does not get email if their "Any field not mentioned 
above changes" checkboxes are unchecked even though their "I'm added to or 
removed from this capacity" checkboxes are checked.  I think that this also 
happens when adding someone to the CC list.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this?

Kick all my Bugzilla bugs back to the component default owner.

This appears to be still a problem in 2.20.  We have an email account which sends email to all our developers, and a corresponding bugzilla account.  Some bugs are assigned to that account when created.  If that account has just "I'm added to or removed from this capacity" and "The bug is resolved or reopened" checked under "Assignee", the email isn't sent (bugzilla lists the account as skipped in the message after the bug is entered).

Seeing this or very similar behavior in current CVS trunk (well, about a week or two old) that users are not receiving the email always when they're assigned to a bug.

For tip, this is a regression due to bug 139309. I'm checking now if 2.22 is affected too.

Tested behavior before and after. This fixes the bug. Also matches with conclusions from the debug session on IRC. :-)

Comment 12

[Frédéric Buclin]

OK, I confirm that 2.22 is not affected. What I think is that this was an old bug in 2.14, then this problem has probably been fixed in bug 73665 for 2.20, and then we introduced it again lately when changing some code.
