Inbound email to ripe.net goes to ripe's mail servers. Just do a mx lookup and you’ll see.
They probably run Gsuite with an "inbound mail gateway" (Google term) config. That way email that isn't going to personnel
- like mailing lists - can be router elsewhere and will bypass Google. Perfectly normal.

Oh wow, that's getting better and better, now even emails are migrated
to Google?
This and *.ripe.net now resolving Cloudflare IP addresses, with tls
certificates issued by Cloudflare and hosted at Cloudflare! This means
that Cloudflare has full access over the traffic in clear!
