This seems like its going to be a full rewrite, where some users are forced to
have to do a lot of work just to keep their code working.  Would it be a
bit easier if you just forked the project and used a new package prefix.
Then the code could get debugged as a separate mail system, and people
could transition to it at their convenience.

It would certainly make finding one's code that needs to be changed
easier, and since the data file are kept the same, one can avoid loosing
any data even if they try both systems (not concurrently) during a
transition.
