So, what you've found there is an ancient hack that nobody used and
that has since fallen apart in disrepair.  It was done in the Good Ol'
Days, when there was only one Bonsai tree in the entire universe.

That technique no longer makes sense in the modern world.  To get this
functionality back requires thought and new code.  Please submit a bug
against Bonsai?

Well, OK, I have added a way so that bonsai maintainers can easily add someone
to always get hook mail.  (Letting people add themselves leads to all sorts
of nasty authentication issues and stuff, and I just didn't want to go there
right now.)

Leaf: the hack is that you have to edit the data/configdata file, and add
the necessary people (separated by commas) to a treeinfo(<whatever),cchookmail)
entry.

I have added "[e-mail]" to always get mail sent to the Seamonkey
hook.
