Wouldn't it be considerably less effort to set the email address of people with unknown emails to something that obviously doesn't work (e.g <[email protected]>)? If in the future these people return, we can set up a .mailmap file to map these placeholder email addresses to their new ones. Setting up a mail forwarding system seems like a pretty enormous and irrelevant yak to be shaving in order to improve the version control system :).
