The email generated by the cygport announce command is useful, but 
actual use cases are somewhat limited due to the hard-coded email 
submission.

The attached patch adds more flexibility. The patch is on top of the 
"Use correct wording if only one package is announced" patch.

Examples for cygport.conf settings:

ANNOUNCE_EDITOR='printf "\\nRegards,\\n$PN package maintainer\\n" >>"$1"'

ANNOUNCE_EDITOR='
n=$(wc -l <"$1") && cat >>"$1" <<EOF &&

   >>> This is an update to the latest upstream release.
   >>> This is a bugfix release.
   <<< PLEASE EDIT >>>

Regards,
$PN package maintainer
EOF
vim +$((n+2)) "$1" && ! grep -E "<<<|>>>" "$1"
'

ANNOUNCE_TO_CMD='cat "$1" >/dev/clipboard'

ANNOUNCE_TO_CMD='
sed "1,/^\$/d" "$1" >$PF-announcement.txt &&
echo "Announcement placed here: $(pwd)/$PF-announcement.txt"
'

ANNOUNCE_TO_CMD='
/usr/local/sbin/custom-mailer \
   --sender="$SMTP_SENDER" \
   --smarthost="$SMTP_SERVER" \
   ...more...options... \
   cygwin-announce@cygwin.com <"$1"
