Huh? Why is that? I think it's a bad idea. Why would you need "bridges" in there two times? You can set up bridges@tpo to forward to the bridges host, done.
Same by the way for help/support. They should be help@tpo and support@tpo, and forward mails to the rt host. There is no reason to expose and require the mention of the used backend software.
We don't want to hide the systems and we want each system to manage it's own mail queues. The main torproject mail server is not designed to handle all mail for all tor services. Each system is independent of one another and allows for better scaling and reachability than having one massive mail hub.
rt, bridges and gettor are flooded with mail, no need to flood other systems and back them up with unrelated email. We can scale each individual system as needed based on usage.
People are just clicking links anyway, they might as well click the most direct one that goes directly to the system.
