Email test script
-----------------

                 Key: DS-447
                 URL: http://jira.dspace.org/jira/browse/DS-447
             Project: DSpace 1.x
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Stuart Lewis
            Priority: Minor
         Attachments: email-test.patch

This patch adds a main() method to Email.java to send a test email. If the 
email cannot be sent, the error message is shown.

This allows the email sending to be tested earlier during the installation, 
rather than waiting for problems to show later on (e.g. when submitting new 
items). This will help new users who get confused why submissions don't work, 
and allows us to provide a method for the admins to report the error message 
more easily.

Documentation (and messages in build.xml) will need updating to tell the user 
to run this script.
