Hi Andrew,

Thanks a lot for fixing up the stable email address. I need to introduce
some form of sanity checking of emails in my flow considering the number
of bounces I am generating with the current set of patches. Manual
inspection just isn't cutting it.

Appreciate you picking up all the patches.

Thanks,
Punit
