I thought I would add a --disable-unidata-email parameter to disable the

Is there some good reason not to do this? But I have never seen it

While the notion is tempting, quite a lot of systems are not configured to support sending outbound email (but will accept it anyway). Even if the mail should somehow go out, it is unlikely to match the user's preferred email address or mail sending approach. People go to great extents to preserve their privacy these days.

Expect lots of complaints.
