Unfortunately, new features must be written against trunk to be accepted;
Subversion does not add new features directly to release branches.

I'm not familiar with mailer.py, but I'm sure someone who is could
advise you how to implement this feature with minimal changes to
existing code. In other words, if you are in doubts about the design,
ask!
