Hi there,
I recently managed to get back into my old email account, and found
that calm has been emailing me weekly complaining that there is no
!ready file an that it has ignored 11 files due to this. I'm not sure
how I didn't notice but I have been very busy with other things. I
was wondering how I can change calm so it sends these emails to
[email protected] instead, as I hadn't spotted this problem.
I have updated this for you.
The self-service method to achieve this is briefly mentioned in [1],
since this address is just taken from a file which you can overwrite
with sftp.

Thank you!
On another note, it appears that "cygport upload" doesn't add the
!ready file. Is this intended?
Are you sure that's what happened here?
I think the files complained about here were uploaded on 2025-11-07,
as an attempted duplicate upload of python-imaging-11.3.0 (previously
uploaded on 2025-09-26).
For historical reasons, we don't automatically purge such files, just
in case the uploader needs them.
(Occasionally I manually purge such files, but I hadn't got around to
it yet in this case.)
Okay, I shall purge them now then.
