I haven't tried using this part of the system on a Windows box.  The 
log_accum.pl and commit_prep.pl scripts were originally derived from 
CVS's contrib module, and on quick inspection, they are very UNIX 
specific (they call sendmail directly, rather than using the preferred 
platform independent Net::SMTP module, and reference /tmp for temporary 
files rather than using tempfile(), etc etc).

We'd ideally need to find an updated version of these scripts that are 
windows (platform independent) friendly, or perhaps hack these scripts 
yourself to make them work.

If you can find more updated versions of these files that run on 
windows, I can modify them with the Codestriker-specific parts to them. 
  Hopefully somebody out there has done this work already.

I'll add a note to the manual in the meantime to indicate that automatic 
topic creation of CVS commits is only supported on UNIX machines.

Cheers,
David
