Working on email package under Barry mentorship looks like a good idea
and a first step to promoting Mark and Abhilash.
Also, we can give them bug triaging privilegy to help with managing
existing 150+ email related bug reports right now, it doesn't hurt.

After some mentorship period, we can consider promoting them to Core Devs again.
Mentorship is always a very important and required part for our
workflow, regardless of tech expertise.
We always are striving to get PR review (except very trivial changes maybe).
Personally, the ability to press the green "merge" button doesn't
change too much in my work (but requires more responsibility, sure).
