You will fix your name in gnunet.scm some day¹, right? If you are not going to modify gnunet.scm, we can fix it right now. .mailmap is not for mail. It is used by "git shortlog" (see "man git-shortlog"), and as I wrote, we use this output to generate AUTHORS file in a release tarball, so keeping this output clean is important. ¹ http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2016-02/msg00506.html -- Alex
