Hundreds (if not thousands) of e-mails sent to the same LIR will cause
all kind of troubles and, depending on the LIR processes, may cause
problems to some LIRs.

I would not mind if all the e-mail addresses which should receive a
notification will receive only one regarding all of their resources.

last-changed should be modified as well, if possible.
