Generally, you should put your @cpan.org address in your .dzil/config.ini or else it might be made public when you release things. Your account appears set up correctly for forwarding. I've copied your cpan.org address. If you get this message multiple times, then the forwarding is working. If not, let me know and I'll follow up with our email admins. (Sending a message from gmail to something that forwards back to the same gmail account is sometimes quirky, because gmail can detect that it's receiving a message that it sent and might not show it as new mail.)
