@sakluger FYI I haven't added the External label as I wasn't 100% sure about this issue. Please take a look and add the label if you agree it's a bug and can be handled by external contributors.

[melvin-bot]

@sakluger Huh... This is 4 days overdue. Who can take care of this?

[sakluger]

I wonder if we're looking for the account ID instead of the account email. When merging accounts, both accounts end up under a single account ID. That means that if you try referencing the account ID for the account that was merged into the current one, you won't find it.
