The page is http://bugs.kde.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email which 
allows the account owner to set different kinds of email notifications, but as 
Cornelius indicated currently watching specifically seems to be offered only 
for users, not systems, modules and the likes (if you want that to change 
feel free to comment at/vote for the list of wishes already reported at 
bugzilla [1]). 

All KDE bugzilla activity is propagated to the kde-bugs-dist mailinglist [2] 
so you could subscribe there and filter out everything you don't want (you 
better do so since it's very high traffic with ~11000 mails each month).

Please note that for such pages one needs to be part of the respective 
permission group ('editcomponents' in this case). I for example am not and 
thus only get an error; and checking my local bugzilla install shows that 
'editcomponents' is quite a powerful group making me hope there aren't too 
many of them around anyway. ;)
