      When a project is initially created a new mailing list is created,
      PROJ-admin@emulab.net.
    
      testbed-approval is subscribed to the list
    
      Several emails that originally went to testbed-approval now go to the
      mailing list instead.  The From, To, fields are basically the same
      with testbed-approval becoming PROJ-admin.  This means some mail
      is sent with a From PROJ-admin and Bcc the mailing list.  Note that
      some mail still goes to testbed-approval directly, in particular
      ones where there is no clear project involved, and when a project is
      denied.
    
      In addition notifications of approval status of new members is also
      sent to the list.  These emails use to only go to testbed-audit@.
    
      Currently All mail sent to PROJ-admin is also sent to testbed-audit
      (via a Bcc).  This means that some mail that didn't use to go to
      testbed-audit now does.
    
      The mailing list is deleted when a project is deleted with out first
      being approved.  Becuase of this notified that a project is denied
      is sent to testbed-approval instead of PROJ-admin.
    
      Admins can access the mailing list from the Project Profile page.
    
      The mailing list is open in order to allow users to reply to the
      mailing list, in addition the check that PROJ-admin is in the To or
      CC field is disabled.  There is currently no spam control on the
      mailing lists.  However, since the mailing list address is not posted
      anywhere it should't pick up to much spam.  If it does we can deal
      with it then.
    
      Finally, a new script is created to create the per-project admin
      mailing list.  See doc/UPDATING.
    
    Also add DBQuerySingleFatal to libdb, which is like DBQueryFatal but
    also fails if the query didn't return any results.  Basically
    identical to he version in libtblog.  Eventually libtblog should be
    modified to use this version.
