Honestly I never understood how exactly @p.d.o addresses work.
Devref says it's "a simple email alias" that "provides a way to email the 
maintainer",
"whatever their individual email address (or addresses) may be",
but doesn't tell which kind of email addresses it forwards to.
Nor can I find info at other places, like wiki.d.o.
I always thought foo@p.d.o would forward to the Maintainer of foo,
but setting foo@p.d.o as the Maintainer of foo means forwarding to itself.

(...)
In fact, this works so well that we should document that in the new maintainer's guide.

I'd also appreciate some (clearer) documentation of the @p.d.o addresses,
other than the vague mention in devref.
Policy doesn't seem to describe it,
nor did I succeed searching in wiki.d.o.
