Bugzilla related little project and e-mail notification

Hello,

Few weeks ago, I started a little java-web-based tool in order to 
integrate Bugzilla with Planner and to generate reports (See "Jujunie 
Integration" project on http://www.jujunie.com). The main working things 
are the integration of Imendio Planner with Bugzilla 2.20 with update of 
the percentage complete in Planner using the time tracking information 
of Bugzilla, and update of the Bugzilla deadline using the calculated 
end date in Planner. There is also one reports on hours worked.
You can see the "TODO" part of the documentation for incomming
functionalities.

I have a little question to improve my project. After updating the 
Bugzilla database with new deadlines, I'm calling the sanitycheck, 
section rescan unsend mail, in order to make Bugzilla sends the e-mails 
notifying the changes. But in your script, there is a delay in order to 
not send e-mails if the change is more recent than 30 minutes ago. Since 
I'd like to propose a patch to add a parameter to define this delay (and 
set it to 0 in my case :p), and in order to avoid regressions, I'd like 
to know why this delay has been introduced? Your answer will be also 
useful for the CruiseControl BugzillaPublisher plugin (developed by 
Nanthrax: http://buildprocess.sourceforge.net/bugzillapublisher.html) 
where I'd like to porpose a patch to add the "e-mail notification" also.

Thanks,

Julien BETI.
