I think you can setup CIA to monitor a mailinglist instead
of adding it to you post-commit. That would do the trick for
you.

You can also download the VM and run the CIA stuff yourself.
Haven't had time/motivation to test this, but it sounds
nice.

Also, you can use one of the newer svn scripts and put a &
in your post-commit hook after the CIA command to fork it to
the background.
