Well -- this one is not my email address: pavel=denx.de@lists.cip-project.org 

This one is: pavel@denx.de

I don't want people to bookmark pavel=denx.de@lists.cip-project.org ,
for example.

We talked about it on IRC: http://ircbot.wl.linuxfoundation.org/meetings/cip/2025/03/cip.2025-03-13-13.01.log.html

The mangled address + reply-to to the list means that it is impossible
to send direct reply to the user, which we agreed is "not
optimal". From the irc discussion it looked like address mangling is
now common feature due to DMARC/DKIM.

Best regards,
