This really needs an inline comment, since you provided a long backstory
explaining how fragile this check is

This is certainly not a correct email to use... it will at best bounce
or get ignored and at worst cause some unintended interactions with gh if
you have an account registered with the email you're sending from 

I opened that person's GH profile and grabbed the git identify of a recent
commit made attributed to this account:

Mecid Urganci <mecid@mecomediagroup.de>

(+CC Mecid, -CC github, fwiw)
