My preferred mode for using bugmail would be to receive, by default, notification of new bugs only, allowing me to decide whether to CC myself onto them or not.  It doesn't look like there's any way to do this right now. 

As it stands now, I'm signed up for several of the QA pseudo-addresses (e.g. general@firefox.bugs, os.integration@firefox.bugs), which does get me the info I need.  I'm pulling down all the messages then filtering on '] New: ' in the subject.  It also gets every other message sent to these addresses, which is about 50 times more traffic than I need for my purposes.

I'm using 'new' to mean 'UNCONFIRMED and newly created'.  Some users would want the same thing for bugs that have status NEW.

If there's a better way to get what I'm looking for, feel free to post it.
