This is based off of GregKH's script, send-lots-of-email.pl, and strives to do all the nice things a good subsystem maintainer does when forwarding a patch or 50 upstream:
All the prior handlers of the patch, as determined by the Signed-off-by: lines, and/or the author of the commit, are cc:ed on the email.
All emails are sent as a reply to the previous email, making it easy to skip a collection of emails that are uninteresting.
