Perforce review daemon
----------------------

### Description

A Perforce submitted changes notification daemon written in Python, for
use on Windows or Unix; can run in the background or via cron; allows
users to subscribe to notifications about jobs (as well as changes); can
notify admin about bad email addresses.

This script supports Python version 2.5 and above. For earlier versions
of Python, use revision \#4.

Note that Python version 3.2 has a [bug in
smtplib](http://bugs.python.org/issue11837) which may cause errors in
p4review.py.

For more information on review daemons, see [The Perforce System
Administrator's
Guide](http://www.perforce.com/perforce/doc.current/manuals/p4sag/06_scripting.html#1038298).
