How to write a GitHub email address

  1. Start with the person's first and last name as they write it on LinkedIn.
  2. Apply {first}{last}@github.com: Jane Doe becomes janedoe@github.com.
  3. If that bounces, try {f}{m}{last}@github.com, which 10% of the sample uses.
  4. 10% of addresses didn't follow a name rule (nicknames, added numbers or older aliases), so a guess can be wrong.
  5. Verify the address before you send, so a wrong guess doesn't bounce and hurt your sender reputation.
