A group I work with had a particular need to ignore commits
to CVS branches. So, I modified our (apparently older)
version of syncmail and added the ability to do just that.

It was a quick hack that I'm sure can be improved, as it
relies on a format assumption of the CVS version string.
Probably using a regexp is a bit much, just to count commas
and periods, but my python mojo is not up to par with my
other languages.

A small unified diff format patch is attached.

Cheers!

    This is a feature that already exists on the
    "new-config-branch" branch in CVS.

    I'm rejecting the patch in favor of finishing that branch
    (I'm all for the feature, though!).
