Curiously nothing about that possible side-effect is mentioned in the gitlab docs either https://docs.gitlab.com/administration/incoming_email/ or at least I didn't see it.
It could be clearer but it does say
„We recommend using an email address that receives only messages that are intended for the GitLab instance“
and it goes on about „dedicated“ addresses….
