I was told that this was not a valid email address to send and receive emails from, and was only an email alias given to companies to interact with Google through their gerrit systems. If that is incorrect, I'll not complain about this anymore, but someone needs to please verify this for me before I do so :) But even if it is valid, should we accept it as a way to get in contact with the original submitter over time? > I think if we ask people to stick "From: is" in the body of the patch we can ignore the difference between sender > address and from/signed-off-by when they use partner domain accounts.
