cvs notify help

[Rita Mintz]

I've got problems using notify during watch in cvs.
I know watch implemented correctly because "cvs watchers" give me right
answer.
I can not make "cvs notify" work.
My mail works fine on the command line, but $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/notify was
never executed.
I did some debugging to verify it.
We are using CVS version 1.10.7 on Linux.
Do you know if "cvs notify" was broken in earlier version of CVS ?

Thanks in advance for any help,

Rita
