Hi,
Today I wanted to become a package maintainer and started following the official guide: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/package-maintainers/Joining_the_Package...
While i was joining the Mail lists I notices my "approved" mail address bachenberg@fedoraproject.org. But i dont know how to receive Mails from that address. So i tried sending myself an e-mail, but I got "550 5.1.1 bachenberg@fedoraproject.org: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in local recipient table"
How do i use my @fedoraproject.org mail address and how did I approve it in the past ?
Greetings, Simon

It's just an alias. It forwards e-mails to whatever address you've mentioned in your Fedora account system profile. You need to be in at least on group in the Fedora account system for the alias to be activated, so if you aren't in any, that's probably why it isn't working yet.
