Bug Description
The "Overview" page (at least until bug 193872 is fixed) for a project, milestone, package, or distribution contains a "Subscribe to bug mail" link. But that's synecdoche, confusing the object with the mechanism (like calling a telephone, or writing to a mailbox).
The link should be reworded to refer to a user goal. What people want to do, if they click this link intentionally, is subscribe to all bug reports. So the link should be "Subscribe to all bug reports", or (if that doesn't fit while the Actions menu still exists, a slighter synecdoche) "Subscribe to all bugs".
