No argument from me there. We generally act on them no matter what.
Typically any email sent to [email protected] requesting revocation is
forwarded to [email protected]. That's the standard procedure. This one
was missed unfortunately.

I personally do think that it matters to this forum. A CA - no matter what
kind of certificates it issues - must take revocation requests seriously and
act immediately, even if the email is sent to the wrong address. If an
employee at the help desk is unable to forward revocation requests, or needs
several weeks to reply, then there is something not correct with the CA, no
matter if the revocation request is related to a web certificate or code
signing certificate. That's my opinion on this case.
