You might also wish to add a NickServ option that would allow
the user to:

1) Either disable the feature totally
2) Have it only send the e-mail when the user is not on
   the IRC Network
3) Have memoserv send the e-mail and keep a copy of the message.
4) Or, have memoserv just send an e-mail and discard the message
   afterwards.  (Mabey not a good idea here in some cases though)

On the whole it sounds like an excellent idea,
