1 Google are not the most reliable when it comes to maintaining
policy/services, nor for advising their decision to make changes. CI/CD
breakage doesn't 'count' when you're big-enough not to care...

2 Every message from the OP in this 'thread' (not others) has broken the
thread, which indicates a wider problem/change.

I'm ignorant of such things. Why not subscribe directly to this list
with your dedicated/public-facing gmail address?
(if the concern relates to having too many email addresses 'open to the
world', is Google the best 'gatekeeper' and privacy guard?)
