Speaking for myself, mailer.py is one of many categories of dev email
that I don't normally look at, but I still want to see it kept
maintained and useful.

So I had a quick look at this patch. At a quick scan through, it looks
sensibly designed and implemented and has documentation in the
mailer.conf example file. Consider that a vote of confidence.

I am reluctant to commit something I haven't tried out and reviewed, and
can't spend the time on this one, but it looks "safe" in the "do no
harm" and "is a reasonable direction of progress" senses so shall I just
commit it?

Yes, I shall commit it, unless anyone quickly lets me know otherwise.
