CVS doesn't send any mail -- you must have installed a commitlog script
of some sort that does.  The commitlog script gets called once for each
directory that's affected, which is probably why you get multiple mail
messages.  See contrib/log_accum.pl and contrib/commit_prep.pl for an
example of how to consolidate this into a single message.
