Small bug in new "Resend email" feature

От

The new "Resend email" feature for the archives sends the e-mail to
your community account's default e-mail address, but that's not
necessarily the same address that you'll use to receive mailing list
stuff.

Is it possible for the feature to either offer a choice, or to have
some intelligence around which address to use?

Thanks

Not easily. A community account only has one email address. Anything else is service-specific added addresses (e.g. in pglister or in the commitfest app), and isn't actually tied to the central community account. So the archives system doesn't have access to it.

Doesn't mean it can't be done, but it does mean it's a pretty major undertaking.

This is a nice to have for me. This doesn't sound like a good use of
your time, given the difficulty.
