Sorry, that should have been -m a (with a space), which is a qsub parameter
(see man qsub). Jsub is actually a frontend for qsub, so all qsub arguments
should work on jsub as well.
Unfortunately, now that I test it, it doesn't seem to work even with -m a.
This might be because the hosts actually are not allowed to /send/ e-mail,
but I'm not completely sure.

Luckily, qacct also provides most (maybe even all?) of the information,
including maxvmem and exit_status, so I'd suggest to use that instead.
