+ Bugzilla via the "Edit prefs" link in the page footer.
+ The preferences are split into four tabs:</P

+NAME="accountsettings">3.3.1. Account Settings</H2
+><P
+>On this tab, you can change your basic account information,
+ including your password, email address and real name. For security
+ reasons, in order to change anything on this page you must type your
+ <EM
+>current</EM
+>
+ password into the
+ <SPAN
+CLASS="QUOTE"
+>"Password"</SPAN
+>
+ field at the top of the page.
+ If you attempt to change your email address, a confirmation
+ email is sent to both the old and new addresses, with a link to use to
+ confirm the change. This helps to prevent account hijacking.</P

+NAME="emailsettings">3.3.2. Email Settings</H2
+><P
+>On this tab you can reduce or increase the amount of email sent
+ you from Bugzilla, opting in our out depending on your relationship to
+ the bug and the change that was made to it. (Note that you can also do
+ client-side filtering using the X-Bugzilla-Reason header which Bugzilla
+ adds to all bugmail.)</P
+><P
+>By entering user email names, delineated by commas, into the
+ "Users to watch" text entry box you can receive a copy of all the
+ bugmail of other users (security settings permitting.) This powerful
+ functionality enables seamless transitions as developers change
+ projects or users go on holiday.</P
