Om, It doesn't seem to be working. I think the alias I add still has to accept and have someone return a confirmation email.
What would be a plan B? Could you set up an autoforwarding rule on your inbox that forwards the notifications to commits? I'm ok with requiring each committer who has a whiteboard to have to do something like that if the popular email systems allow it. I use outlook/entourage so I think I can do it, but I don't use gmail so I don't know if it can. -Alex On 4/27/13 3:39 PM, "OmPrakash Muppirala" <bigosma...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Fri, Apr 26, 2013 at 10:22 PM, Alex Harui <aha...@adobe.com> wrote: > >> Looks like I am a moderator.
