about configuring mailer.py

Finally, I got a RPM file that has python binding included on it and I am
able to run viewvc.

Now I also want to use the mailer.py function of subversion.

I have a shell script working for email sending purpose but I want to use
mailer.py as it seems to have lot of feature . Currently I get no errors
when commiting but I donot get any emails sent as well.

I am using subversion 1.4.3 in RHEL -4

in post-commit file i have the following lines added

/usr/bin/python $REPOS/hooks/mailer.py commit "$REPOS" "$REV"
$REPOS/hooks/mailer.conf

I then went to the mailer.conf..( which seems self explanatory but not
working for me) and made few changes..which are as follows:

I commented the to and from address in default section

#to_addr = commit@example.com
#from_addr = invalid@example.com

My repository structure is /home/svn/repos
                                             /test
                                                  /branches
                                                  /trunk
                                                  /tags
So, I went to the mapping section and did the following changes
[projects]
for_repos = test/(?P<test>[^/]*)($|/)
from_addr = %(author)s
to_addr = %(test)s

[maps]
from_addr = [authors]
to_addr = [mailing-lists]

[authors]
binod= test@example.com

[mailing-lists]
test123 = test@example.org

Here I do not see how to_addr will pick up the test123 from mailing list. I
know I am missing lot more than that. Can anyone help me out with this
misery of confusion please?

Thanks for your help guys in advance. You guys have been very very helpful.
