IIRC, when I became a opensuse team member I was given a email address
of some kind, but I don't recall being encouraged to use it and I
never have.

Assuming I recall correctly and the email address identifies me as
identified with opensuse, simple things like encouraging its use by
team members is a form of free and subtle marketing that I think can
go a long way in making the overall community appreciate how much the
suse team contributes.

Greg, that was (and still is) precisely the idea behind the @opensuse.org
email addresses ;)
(I was the one pushing for that, initially, quite some time ago)

And also the fact that implicitly or explicitly, someone with an
@opensuse.org
email address is seen as having some sort of responsibility in the project.
Which is why we don't just give them around to everyone, but only to the
openSUSE Members: our contributors.

Pascal (or other),

How do I find out what my @opensuse.org email address is.

I guessed at a couple and sent them emails, but nothing showed up in
my normal inbox (as it should per the wiki.), nor my spam box.

I also looked at http://en.opensuse.org/Special:Preferences and don't
see it shown to me.

I like the idea, but it needs a little more visibility I think.

Greg

Actually one of my guesses worked, it just pushed into a subfolder
because of a filter I have and I missed.

Still seems the preferences page should show it.

Thanks
Greg
