Hello Michael,
many thanks for your response :)
If I understand you right this means that I can't use sort of an automatic
proces for using specific subjects depending on the path of the commited
item :(
The idea was to use only 1 big repository for all projects and enable
the developers to add their new projects in the root of the repository
and let the mailer.conf do the automagical assignment of the correct
subject without needing to add new entries in the mailer.conf every time
a new project is added ...
No go though :(
But thanks for your advice
Stefan
