Rather than add complexity to the original get_maintainer script, is
it possible to add a pipe like " | grep -v '<your_address>'" to tocmd ?

I think it better to have these cmds use scripts ala:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/1473862411.32273.25.camel@perches.com/

And if not a script and the complexity is warranted (though I think not)
I'd rather have something like --suppress-addresss "<addr>" added to
get_maintainer.pl to allow one or more addresses to be suppressed.
