Strange unknown email sender nick on private repository change notifications

Question

Body

Does anybody know why email repository change notifications suddenly come from a nick that it's not the user's nick (i.e. "someonenick <noreply@github.com>" while it used to be "myownnick <noreply@github.com>"), but since a few weeks not anymore? I have double checked permissions, addresses. No clue...

This could be related to a recent change in repository permissions or collaborator roles, especially if someone with higher privileges made changes to the repository. It's also possible that GitHub adjusted how notifications are routed due to system updates or settings changes. I’d recommend double-checking the collaborator settings and reviewing any recent changes to the repository or the GitHub account profile. If the issue persists, it might be worth reaching out to GitHub support for further assistance.

Thanks. Yes, I double checked permissions and collaborator, though I didn't make any changes to those since time. I'm the owner of the repository and there is just one collaborator. I agree with you when you say that GitHub could have made changes to the message routing system, as a possible cause. I'll follow your advice and contact support.
