Because rmk rewrites addresses to comply with privacy laws. Another good 
example of why this nonsense of yours is exactly that.

I checked and am personally in there three times, once even without any 
valid email address listed. And any time there's anything other than my 
gmail address in some submission it at least recently means that someone 
_else_ took my from: address and stuck it on there and while I don't 
terribly mind that generally, I find it really annoying to see even 
those mistakes harvested into your hugely google-accessible resource.

This is just yet another example of the senseless robotic crap people 
people just insist is "needed" and "valueable", but which is neither.

Nonsense it is.

Rene.
