Ah, I hadn't considered the case where the person configuring a project wouldn't be the person maintaining the server/running the parsemail script. This is clearly a very common situation (example: ozlabs.org).

One point is that this patch doesn't have manual SQL migrations. However, as Django 1.6 is no longer supported upstream[1] and we now have some form of versioning[2], I feel comfortable dropping support ourselves. This also allows us to drop support for manual SQL migrations, thus sidestepping the issue entirely. Once I've merged the changes removing this support I will merge this.
