My From name and Signed-off name matches. But my emails donot match.
Which is fine - unless you are submitting patches to Mark 8). I also
usually split my email address and GregKH doesn't seem to mind at all.
I usually end up applying but I don't like having to think about it and
normally only for people I recognise both addresses and all the names
for - there's a lot of places that can fall over.
I was suspecting that since this is a new email address so you objected
whereas you have seen my vectorindia email many times so you got used to
it. :)
Let me use my new email address the way I was using my old address and
you will see its same "me".
I've noticed an
increase in the number of people missing out signoffs recently for some
reason so anything that looks like a non-author message is a red flag.
The other option I suppose would be to put both addresses in the signed
off by sequence, but that probably causes confusion
The other option is to just not use the work address if you don't want
to use it (that's what I do).
Since I use my work resources and office working hours to generate and
submit patches so I think I should use my work address as signoff.
