Then that uploader does not want to receive mail, period. Unless you go
and use their address directly.

(One could say that they should receive the mail nevertheless because
they've put their name in the control file. That's a valid point of
view, but that's not the "status quo", and it's debatable whether it
should be that way, because the subscription to the PTS is the canonical
way for co-maintianers to work (modulo mailing lists as maintianer).)
