Yes, that was due to trac I wrote a plugin that will strictly only email members of our trac instance. It was due to the git ticket updater putting his name directly as a 'commenter' on the ticket via the database. Then when the ticket was updated he was getting emails. > Most likely it's a lot harder to construct a similar situation for the > RTEMS core repository. But I wouldn't entirely rule it out.

I'll look into it to make sure nothing has changed in regards to this but it's possible that Buildbot could email anyone in the Author list if the patches were pulled out directly from a repository.
