hello,
i tried to send the forcedeth maintainer an email, but it came back with:
"The mail address [email protected] is not read anymore. Please resent your mail to manfred@ instead of manfreds@."
this attached patch tries to fix it.
As far as I know (at least that's what akpm told me last I submitted a similar patch) it's prefered that email addresses are listed in CREDITS and MAINTAINERS only and when addresses change and need to be updated that's a perfect time to get them out of the source and into the proper location.
And seeing that Manfred's address in CREDITS is already correct, I believe a patch that simply replaces "Manfred Spraul <[email protected]>" with "Manfred Spraul" in the source files would be better.

good point. i wonder now if a big-fat-erase-all-email-addresses-from-the-sources patch is welcome...
thanks,
Christian.
