The intent was that some registrars may choose to include the name of
their reseller when the registrar sends an email.

Under the transfers policy it is the registrar that is responsible for
the confirmation messages.
A registrar may choose to outsource this obligation to another party
(e.g a reseller) with I assume a iron clad contract to protect the
registrar, but the registrar is still responsible.
