New email-related meta-variables.
These variables make it possible to avoid setting `recipient' statement in `notify' blocks, instead specifying recipients directly in the message headers and using the default recipient setting, which is `read'. * src/mail.c (expand_email_admin) (expand_email_owner): New functions. * src/triplet.c (triplet_processor): Remove the triplet if process_directives returns !0. (expand_email_user): New function. (triplet_meta): New keywords email:user (not to be confused with user:email), email:admin and email:owner. * src/wydawca.h (expand_email_admin) (expand_email_owner): New functions. * NEWS, doc/wydawca.texi: Updated.

+ email:owner Full email address of the project administrator.

+Note: `email:user' is not to be confused with `user:email'. The latter

+The special construct $-, when used in message texts, causes removal
+of the character following it. Its intended use is primarily to
+remove the following newline character (like dnl in m4).
