And it doesn't exists.

No.

When you receive a mail from somebody that report you a bug on github
the "From" header is like this:

From: Bob <notifications <at> github.com>

And then Gnus ask:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Address `helm <at> noreply.github.com' might be bogus.  Continue? (y or n)  y
Sending...
Sending via mail...
Delivering message to emacs-helm/helm <reply+i-9131322-4209e327b45ec8b02eff867a89ed150cbee7298b-1533939 <at> reply.github.com>...
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

and it doesn't (shouldn't) try to send to <notifications <at> github.com> 
but it does so when replying with emacs-24.3.50.1 (trunk).
As I said this doesn't happen with emacs-24 branch (I replied several
times today with no problems)

Note: I use "F" to reply on github as always. (The mail is Cc'ed to the
real address of sender)
