More fallout from the new restrictions added to IEmailAddress. In this case the gijsmolenaar account had hidden email addresses.

Gijs, meanwhile, if you file a question listing your three accounts, I'll merge them for you.

I say three, because I see https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/~gijzelaar as well!

thanks for the offer, but I already merged my accounts with the help of a launchpad developer on IRC.

I renamed the result to gijzelaar, so I'm happy now :)
