to avoid getting bounce messages and to allow developers
who do not want direct mail.

I wonder if there is a way to get new email address of the user, instead
of ignoring it, we have all email addressed in '.mailmap', old ones and
preferred one.

The tool does use mailmap, so it should be finding the new addresses.
For Ferruh that should work. There might be an ordering of addresses in our
mailmap file for some cases where the primary address is not listed first?

If the user hasn't provided a new email address then they probably aren't
interested in still being involved in the project. Therefore, adding them
to ignore file is probably best.
