You're trying to apply logic to legal requirements. :) It's actually fine for someone to submit a Github pull request using their corporate "From:", because it's not an action that sends email from their corporate address. Email is considered official company correspondence and therefore must be preserved in case it needs to be turned over during lawsuits (for fact-finding). >We can also find creative ways to subvert corporate policies: >For example; if their policy specifically prevents outgoing SMTP, >"git imap-send" could be used. I'm generally against recommending solutions that can get people into legal trouble. If their company requires that all work correspondence is sent via the company's SMTP server, then we shouldn't be putting forth technical solutions defeating this. -K
