Maybe I am just confused about what you are talking about here, but
run-tests.php does not send emails.
It POSTs the information to qa.php.net which then checks if we care
about that PHP version and then sends the mail to qa-reports@ if we
do...
It would be very simple to alter this as of 5.3 to POST (XML,
serialized array, or whatever) to different url on qa.php.net which
then can process the results differently, possibly by storing stuff in
a database so querying about specific platforms would be easier, or
even specific tests.......
