Yes, I did receive the notification today.  About your CVS mail delema,
I wonder if you could just have CVS send the mails like it now does to a
"dummy user" on that machine or inside your network.  Then have that
dummy user run an automated script of some kind to pass these messages
to CVS mailing list with whatever From: id you wish.  Does this make
sense? Perhaps the mail forwarding script written in perl, python, etc.
could run from a crontab a couple times a day or something.  I'm just
thinking on the fly right now but maybe this this could get around
subscriptions problem.  Hope I understood your question correctly:).
