I think this is the change that made the error occur.

https://github.com/apache/whimsy/commit/32076c779bbc990f7e8ea0b002ac62903cd4fb1a#diff-7acc05691a456b71d17e29ce33d05a2cf43783be9d87eb7fac49458a46b47ab5

@from.untaint if @from =~ /\A("?[\s\w]+"?\s+<)?\w+@apache\.org>?\z/

was changed to 


_warn "Invalid From address #{@from}" unless @from =~ 
/\A("?[\s\w]+"?\s+<)?\w+@apache\.org>?\z/

I looked at some of the other actions, e.g. ccla.json.rb grant.json.rb and they 
do not have a similar email check.

So, why is this necessary? And can the check pass my email address? "Craig L 
Russell <c...@apache.org <mailto:c...@apache.org>>"
