Not that absurd when one understands that "You" is the addressee, i.e.
mageia-i18n at mageia.org, i.e. the whole Internationalisation
translation team. Then what follows is just classic Bugzilla
procedure: if it is a bug related to i18n, we can set the status to
ASSIGNED, if not we should set it to the correct assignee or revert it
to BugSquad (default).

So the only change I would eventually make would be to change the
first sentence to: “Hi, you _or your team_ are the assignee for the
following bugs for Mageia and we would like to know whether they were
assigned correctly.”
