Hi! Sorry for taking so long, but I've been swamped in other aspects.

First comment is that the numbered patches need to be a reply to the
cover patch (that is patches 1/2 and 2/2 need to be replies of 0/2).
Otherwise, my mailer loses them, because I always have my email sorted
by threads, and a reply to 0/2 will move it away from the other patches
if the other patches are not replies.

Use "MAILTO" for the variable for email. That's the common name in
other tools.

Hmm, I'm thinking it doesn't get sent when we hit Ctrl-C. Or at last
have these as options to when to send them.

I think by default, it should only send when finished, or failed. But
have options like:

EMAIL_WHEN_STARTED, EMAIL_WHEN_CANCELED (both default false)
EMAIL_WHEN_FINIHSED and EMAIL_ON_ERROR (both default true).

Other tools (namely quilt) use sendmail (and I always make sure that is
functional on my system), please default to that.

Add these to the option map:

[..]

my $mailto;
my $mailer;
my $email_on_error;
my $email_when_finished;
my $email_when_started;
my $email_when_canceled;

[..]

my %option_map {
[..]
"MAILTO" => \$mailto,
"MAILER" => \$mailer,
"EMAIL_ON_ERROR" => \$email_on_error,
"EMAIL_WHEN_FINISHED" => \$email_when_finished,
"EMAIL_WHEN_STARTED" => \$email_when_started,
"EMAIL_WHEN_CANCELED" => \$email_when_canceled,

Then you can do:

if ($mailto ne "" && $mailer ne "")

And use these variables through out, it makes it much easier to read.

Also, all variables also need to be commented in the samples.conf file.
