Yes. It's been on my when-I-get-around-to-it list for a while, and with 
a specific request I'll bump it up the queue. Should be able to kick 
something into shape next week (I'm away from my computer from now until 
Tuesday).

Unrelatedly, please configure your mailer to not quote raw email 
addresses, or switch to a mailer that doesn't. Per 
<https://cygwin.com/acronyms/#PCYMTNQREAIYR>, it's vastly useful in 
preventing spam harvesters.
