Free non-opensource webmail interfaces suck, what were you expecting?
Just stop using them!
Anyway after a few minutes of research the best I can do is to filter
out using this filter "to:(<your email address>) You are watching the
assignee of the bug.", but this works only if you are following only the
kde-telepathy-bugs-null.
A good solution is that we request a -bugs mailing list and those who
have a normal email client can follow the bugzilla user, the others can
subscribe to the -bugs mailing list and receive the messages twice.
