These are groups or tracks. You can define any track you want from the 
CDash interface. By definition Nightly regroup the builds that are run 
at night, continuous are builds that are continuously tracking the state 
of the software and experimental are builds that are submitted once.

CDash queries the repository to report the nightly changes (every 24h), 
if you have a publicly available repository you can specify the URL in 
CDash.

The From is the variable "$CDASH_EMAILADMIN" in your config.local.php.
