Whilst trying to reproduce this (I haven't yet and am trying a different tack at the moment), a thought occurred to me. Maybe this bug isn't with the fact that we send emails, maybe it's due to the filter creation overlay not being explicit enough. I've attached a screenshot showing what I think is an implication that you're always going to get told about new bugs.

What I think it should read is something like this:

  (*) are added or changed in any way
    [x] Send mail about comments
    [x] Only tell me about changes to bugs that match this filter:

I think what Gavin's seeing is actually not buggy; it's just that we're not expressing the expected behaviour clearly enough when the user is creating the filter.

Of course, this doesn't mean we shouldn't just change the expected behaviour.
