Yes. let's quit pretending the email is a legitimate bug tracking tool.
This should be entered in whatever tool you use to track the change to begin with.
You can choose to keep the current ticket open and add to it (fewer things to track, but multiple problem reports make it confusing) or open a new ticket for each reported problem, tying it back to the original change request.
I'd argue that QA shouldn't even be assigning these things, but that might be a bit much. Probably want to have the original developer investigate any fixes.
Also, someone has to be able to shut QA down if the perceived problem is actually a new change. "I found/thought of something that's not in the requirements, it's a bug!" might not be so. If it hinders use of the tool, then yes, it should be addressed. If it's just a "nice to have", it's an enhancement for future development.

Sounds lik a resounding reason to thoroughly test one's own code!

I had a similar situation back in the 90's with a fairly senior tester. He would report bugs like this, but he would also not provide any clear way to reproduce the issue. I would get this problem report, try and reproduce it and find it all working.
So I would kick it back to him as "no repro" and ask for the steps to reproduce. Instead I just got vitriol and the bug punted back to me to fix.
In these sort of cases, it is up to management to provide a clear mechanism to decide on issues and priorities. Nowadays we tend to have sprints where the tasks are decided, including features and issues to be addressed. Only real show-stoppers can get added mid-sprint, and that still has to go through some sort of review.
To all the people in QA (I used to be one): Issues need to be investigated. Reduced to the smallest common repro steps. And any insights as to the issue is helpful. The more info you can provide, the easier you make it for development to figure out what is wrong and address it.

A horse walks into a bar and orders a pint.
The barkeep says "You're here pretty often. Do you think you might be an alcoholic?"
The horse replies, "I don't think I am," and vanishes from existence.
See, the joke is about Descartes' famous philosophy of 'I think, therefore, I am', but to explain that part before the rest of the joke would be putting Descartes before the horse.

I Kant believe it, Hulme would have thought a philosophy joke could be that good? Top Marx!
(btw, was the horse called Thomas Equinus?)

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Oh no, I get it, there's no need to explain it but it's also not funny simply because it's NOT funny. It's more of a GROAN response.

Oh, very good!
I'll let someone else take it unless it's unsolved ... but I don't think it will be!

Not a fan of this week's theme, but I haven't done one is a while so (he says hoping hes actually right)...
Frankincense = Present given to baby Jebus
Frank = Open
incense = (to) Anger
And as Griff said, it's a good clue!

And as Griff predicted, we have a winner who isn't Griff!
(Don't blame me for the air-freshener theme, the original intention was a little more up MM's alley!)

Hi All,
Currently I am using below JQuery to extract report, where code is converting Encrypted data to Decrypted form and it is taking too much time. If I am not decrypting then it is loading fast, so is there any solution where I can use decryotion with good performance to download the report.

Well, there you go.
I'd fix that, if I was you.
But ... ignoring what is written on sites in red letters is a bad idea - it doesn't dispose people to want to help you when you can;t be bothered to ask in the right place.
Ask here: Ask a question[^] and provide better information if you want a "good" response.

Gets me thinking..
Ask a question is much more accessible than the Lounge. There is a big green banner on the home page and a direct link in the menu.
Still we get such questions in the lounge. hmm...
