It hasn't been updated in more than two years.  I'm not even sure I want
to look at the code that's that old.  :-)

I can most likely get a server with a mailing list and subversion, so my
big sticking-point is the program's name.  I'm not really happy with the
adding of the "py" to "mail", but naming things has never been easy for me
(I only name my computers because network code requires it).  And just
about everything else depends on having a semi-permanent name.

I'm considering the names red or pink, the former is shorter, but the
latter can touch-typed one-handed ("pink.py").  Although I like the
pun-ishness of "red" too:-)
