That is the point.

To really know the identity of the current maintainer for certain, it is best to go to the Arch Linux website and check there who is (or are) in charge of the package in question. Also, many package maintainers (myself among them) prefer to use ticketing systems (or AUR comments) to keep track of a problem (or improvement) in a package rather than email and that usually appears as a note posted in the AUR itself. The reason for doing this is to make those comments public, so that if another user has the same error they can know what it is due to and how to fix it.

IMHO, email should always be the last option for contacting a package maintainer and only be used when all other methods fail.
