Please dont use LKML subscriptions as the authority of one's preferred email address.
I, for instance, am *only* subscribed to LKML using my gmail account. I prefer that nobody ever email my gmail account directly -- I use my gmail account as a filter -- gmail filters my mails and fwd's specific mails to my other specific email addresses -- I rarely read gmail directly, and I am unlikely to ever read an email addressed to my gmail box.
I favor my "at linuxtv dot org" account for my kernel work, and I hope that is the email that shows up as primary for me (I would only guess that I have one or two aliases in this .mailmap file.)
Regards,
Mike
