The blog post mentions "Someone else who knew you had to add it", but this is not exact (or no longer exact). An employee can send an email to a special address with the content, and it will show up when they leave the company.

That's what I did. That said, I can't double-check to see if it worked. :)

Thanks for the tool, Evan!

You are both right. Originally you could not email, and like the OP I kind of liked the ceremony of entrusting someone with a message to send from beyond the grave. But someone contributed the code to make the email work, likely after the OP's time.

Laurent FYI it didn't work (FYI we interacted over the cider font size thing). I couldn't find you anywhere even though I know your ldap.

Ah, maybe I wrote the email and forgot to press send. :)

Well, you can update Epitaphs and add a link to "go/laurentlb". Thanks!
