When I look in the logs, I don't see any emails from
osumi(dot)takamichi(at)fujitsu(dot)com being stopped for moderation, except for one on
the 14th.

However, I also don't see osumi(dot)takamichi(at)fujitsu(dot)com being subscribed to
the hackers list. Which exactly is your old and new address?

This is because of how your mail system is set up. The outgoing email being
sent does not have a name on it, just the email address, so that's what the
PostgreSQL systems will use at every level. In the headers of this email
you sent for example, it has:

From: "osumi(dot)takamichi(at)fujitsu(dot)com" <osumi(dot)takamichi(at)fujitsu(dot)com>

With no further details.

So that is something you will need to bring up with your mail system
admionistrators.

(3) By the way, could I change username without recreating a new account ?

Unfortunately no, usernames cannot be changed.
