From: Derrick Stolee <redacted> Stolee transitioned from Microsoft to GitHub in July 2020, but continued to use [off-list ref] because it was a valid address. He also used [off-list ref] to communicate with the mailing list since writing plaintext emails is difficult in Outlook. However, recent issues with GMail delaying mailing list messages created a need to change his primary email address.
Yeah that sucks. You might be interested in the tips I had for working around it in https://lore.kernel.org/git/220202.86leyt8uly.gmgdl@evledraar.gmail.com/ (local); and others have suggested subscribing an alias address for the GMail address.

FWIW I think only the addition of that last line is needed since the .mailmap syntax supports mapping A->B, followed by B->C.
