o 
o You can also query the Trac database to find cc'ed tickets:
o http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/query?cc=$EMAIL
o
o If you are set on CC for a ticket, Trac also sends the mail with your email
o address in the CC header. If you are the reporter or assignee, your email
o address is in the To header.

This requires polling. Is there a "push" way to ensure that you know 
about any tickets for your ports? Can we guarantee that the 
maintainer(s) are listed as CC's (I can't think of a situation where 
they shouldn't be).
