Explanation: The contact's mail address either loops back to itself or is known
to bounce.
.
Loops happen because an address is package@packages.debian.org
or to package@packages.qa.debian.org
. Bounces happen when the
recipient, typically a mailing list, is known to bounce mails.
.
The mail address must accept messages from role accounts used to send
automated mails regarding the package, including those from the bug
tracking system.
