How about only on regressions? We get a lot of failures and I just filter
them all into /Hudson and clear it every few days.
If it's easy to do, it would be really cool to get mail on regressions and
on the first failure following a regression since it shows that it's not a
flicker.

I don't like this, I never look in /Hudson, I just goto the site if I want
to get a picture of the current state. If other people read all of the mail
coming from the ci then I suppose it serves a purpose but for me it's just
load testing my mail client's sqlite3 database.

This is helpful since most of the regression mail is actually flickerspam.

That's helpful, if it's easy to add a count of "persistently failing tests"
to filter out flickers then that would be nice.
