I've found that even active OSM contributors don't necessarily check the
email address associated with their OSM account.  If that is the case, they
may have not yet seen any changeset comments you have made on their
changesets.

It's good to follow up with an OSM private message as these pop-up when you
log in to www.openstreetmap.org or start an editor like JOSM.
