Is there an alternative to reporting bugs via bugzilla?

I tried to open an account, but they recommend not using your main e-mail address because it will be posted to the web for all the spammers to find. But I don't have another e-mail address, and it seems a bit much to create a fake e-mail account for a few bug reports.

I also tried to post to the threads about bugs, but they are all bugzilla archives.

I've narrowed it down to a pretty simple little program that demonstrates the bug, and even tried it on DMD/LDC2, for mac, ubuntu, and windows 10.

Thanks,

Post the program somewhere otherwise we cannot help.

Slightly OT, but with a gmail/yahoo address, generally the spam filter is quite good. I've used my yahoo address for years on bugzilla and this forum, and never had adverse spamming issues.
