Description Paolo 2015-05-10 10:00:24 UTC 
Hi,
I'm trying to send an e-mail to the gitmaster address but I always receive the following message in return:

Recipient address rejected: User unknown in local recipient table

Cheers,

Paolo

What email address are you trying to email to, and why?
Comment 2 Paolo 2015-05-10 10:28:21 UTC 
Hi,
I'm trying to write to gitmaster@gnome.org because I'd like to request a new git account for a module I'm currently developing.

Cheers,

Paolo

Hi,

Please note that the process for getting a new account is described here: https://wiki.gnome.org/AccountsTeam/NewAccounts.

As is indicated, you're supposed to use accounts@gnome.org rather than gitmaster@gnome.org.

With kind regards,
