You can create a person from a string by using this method:
PersonManager.person_for "My name <email at domain.com>"
You can give it any valid email address, and it takes care of returning
the same Person object for duplicate addresses.
Brief Ruby aside: If you're going to be doing a lot of such comparisons,
you can structure the hook like:
PersonManager.person_for case
when message.to =~ /rubyforge/
"My name <email at email1.org>"
when message.recipient_email =~ /rubyforge/
"My name <email at email2.org>"
else
"My name <default at default.org>"
end
Note that the return statement isn't required (the final value of the
hook is used), and multiple if-then's can be collapsed into a case
statement.

Sadly, there's no good documentation for this right now beyond asking on
the mailing list. (Well besides learning Ruby and looking at the code.)
I'm sorry about that.
