Hello Felix, thanks for picking it up.
I had the problem with <[email protected] instead of <[email protected]> After uploading something finds the problem and claims that "bad maintainer address". . I want to have this message back (bad maintainer address) so I know what I have to fix for a proper upload. I guess for the new queue there is a test for proper maintainer addresses. I hope we can minimize the difference in checking a package.
