svn commit: r395540 - head/mail/p5-Dancer-Plugin-Email

[Andrej Zverev]

After some research, now I'm understanding problem. Bad news is that
it can't be solved via Mk/ :( But it can be solved via port scout's
plugin. It will possible to search new versions even after maintainer
for module is changed (for modules which can't be even found via
by-modules requests). But you will need change AUTHOR ID inside
MASTER_SITE_SUBDIR in any case. For modules which can be searched via
by-modules request I did some commits and I'm hope it will solve
situation partially.
