The [email protected] emails are being bounced by vger.kernel.org
The reason is that there are always syntax errors in the SMTP
headers.
Specifical, the From address is:
From: kernelci.orgbot <[email protected]>
By SMTP rules, when special characters such a '.' appear in
headers, the string must be surrounded by double quotes.
Can someone please contact whoever maintains the bot so
they can fix this?
Thank you.

We mostly just rely on gmail to deal with this, so it's pretty
disappointing to see a malformed header.
