Well I can't see it in the caught spam queue for stuff incoming to
gnats, and there's nothing to indicate that anything has been lost
after coming into gnats, so I'd recommend the cold plains of the MTAs
involved as a first step.

The only PR "grep -i stbernard" can find is bin/36175.

I find GNATS to be the easiest way to find a track record too, but
committers really need to log who submissions are coming from in commit
logs anyway.  Think FPB.
