When I asked Jonathan about it before, it seemed not to be possible, but
it's certainly a feature I would love to see--the ability to address
cvs-committers to a different mailbox from rwatson@freebsd.org mail would
be extremely useful for me.  Due to my current mail server setup, it's not
possible for me to use procmail and, to be honest, I'd rather not :-).
Maybe a closed majordomo mailing list freebsd-committers@freebsd.org would
be useful?
