Okay, I'm a bit confused here. This is how far I am:

- Created a trax alias anash.p.oom...@google.com. This maps to
AdWordsAPIAdvisor queue. Also verified that if I respond, then I have an
option to pick a mail in the dropdown.
- Raised a ticket to create anash.p.oom...@google.com as an alias to
an...@google.com, so I can respond from my account itself as
anash.p.oom...@google.com.
- Logged in as adwordsapiadvi...@google.com to
http://groups.google.com/group/adwords-api, added
anash.p.oommen@google.comas a member, manager, allowed posting. This
gives me a G badge too.
- Sent a mail from anash.p.oom...@google.com to adwords-api@googlegroups.com.
Ensured that this opens a new thread in the group.
- Replied to this thread first as adwordsapiadvi...@google.com and then as
anash.p.oom...@google.com. In both cases, a new ticket got opened in trax,
that too as a cc'd noreply@.

What am I doing wrong? Also, how do I setup profile picture for
anash.p.oom...@google.com?
