The changes should be made to MAINTAINERS.yml, then MAINTAINERS regenerated from that using contrib/gen-MAINTAINERS.py.  This will check that your updates to MAINTAINERS.yml are valid before rebuilding MAINTAINERS.

We want to preserve old email addresses, so please don't remove them.  We mostly only care about the first entry here, so if you want to change your primary address, just move it first.

This shouldn't be removed, it will result in a validation failure.

If you want to have a different email from your primary email associated with this role, you can add
+  - Maintainer: rs6000/powerpc port
+    email: [email protected]

The alternative email should also be in the main list of emails, but it doesn't have to be first.
