Then please stop reminding us. *I* hate to bring it up, but there *were*
people other than me who didn't agree with your solution and/or design and
who couldn't understand your obsession with Mail::Bulkmail, especially when
we're not sending "bulkmail" and that module doesn't get us anything but a
weird dependency. (This is not an invitation to start up that discussion
again, BTW). But don't paint the picture that I'm the "lone obstacle" to
your patch for 84876.

Now that I think about it more, it should be possible to decouple the
two... I think I was in the mindset of keeping them together because some
of the necessary patchwork to do so had already been done in 84876; bbaetz
and I had a conversation about somewhere in there, IIRC.

It looks like there's already a separate bug for mail templatization: bug
100089. And before you complain about comment 7, all I meant was that
whatever architecture we design for 84876 should make it easy to fix
100089.

Later,
Paul
