People make mistakes, making the default a real email account of an unknown third party just increases the consequences of the mistake.

Besides, who gets to control this account?  The only way for it to be useful to everyone is for everyone to have access and I can't see how that would work well.

Go for the latter - something that isn't real.

I am thinking to revert my commit. Actually I saw more benefit in
keeping gmail account settings but yes I agree from your point which
is very important.

I think it would be fine if we keep the old email address as it
is(ofbiztest@yahoo.com) not a valid email address and no accidental
email will be generated.

or

We are fine in changing ofbiztest@yahoo.com to test@example.com.

LMK your thoughts on this!
Thanks!
