I find it extremely concerning that a completely innocent text like this
is considered spam by bugzilla, and apparently nobody knows why.

Best is to attach such logs instead of posting them as comments.
Comments are spam checked. And in this case I think the spam checker
learned that using "support" lots of time might indicate a support
scam.

Cheers,

Mark

Spam filters (like LLMs) are statistical gadgets that rarely provide
explanatory context.  It's a double-edged sword, as this measure was
made necessary by an organized campaign of mass-spamming bugzilla
records.  We're sorry about the inconvenience, but it's the best
balance we've been able to strike.
