I tried to reset my password, but the email I got only had a token with no instructions on what to do with it.

This is the template used to generate the password reset mail:

-----------

From: [% Param('mailfrom') %]
To: [% emailaddress %]
Subject:  [% terms.Bugzilla %] Change Password Request
X-Bugzilla-Type: admin
 
You have (or someone impersonating you has) requested to change your 
[%+ terms.Bugzilla %] password. To complete the change, visit the following link:
 
[%+ urlbase %]token.cgi?t=[% token FILTER uri %]&a=cfmpw
 
If you are not the person who made this request, or you wish to cancel
this request, visit the following link:
 
[%+ urlbase %]token.cgi?t=[% token FILTER uri %]&a=cxlpw
 
If you do nothing, the request will lapse after [% constants.MAX_TOKEN_AGE %] days
(on [% expiration_ts FILTER time("%B %e, %Y at %H:%M %Z", timezone) %]) or when you
log in successfully.

-------------

So I feel it is pretty well documented. If you have a PGP key or SMIME cert attached to your account, the email will be encrypted and you will need to decrypt it to see the above text using a compatible email client. Would that be the case?

Ah, that was it.  I forgot I had a key setup.
