Thanks! I see that Matt already applied this.

As I mentioned somewhere, my next set of steps are:

* pipe output into a mail program (and avoid os.popen)
* add configuration options
  - default options
  - per-group overrides
  - group selection based on repos and on path
  - each group defines:
    o how to construct From:
    o how to construct To:
    o whether to set Reply-To and/or Mail-Followup-To
      (btw: it is legal do set Reply-To since this is the originator of the
       mail; i.e. different from MLMs that munge it)
    o max size of diff before trimming
    o how to construct a ViewCVS URL for the diff
    o optional, non-mail log file

If there are specific features that you'd like to see, then I'd love to hear
about it. My primary reasons to write the mailer.py (vs commit-email.pl) was
that I wanted a .conf file rather than a billion cmdline switches, and I
wanted to stream the output rather than load-into-mem-write-to-mailer like
commit-email does. I also prefer the bindings over forking, and there is
that whole Python vs Perl thing going on :-)

Cheers,
