[email] Handling bounces (was Re: DO NOT REPLY [Bug 18968] -
[email] Support SMTP Envelope From (bounce address))
I updated Email.java and added some notes at the bottom of
xdocs/examples.xml. I couldn't figure out any way to have Dumbster
"simulate" a bounce, but I did write a trivial Java app that sent a
message with and without setting the bounce address value and
confirmed that it did what I intended it to do.
I haven't yet got karma for any Commons-proper projects, but I'd be
happy to be on STATUS and continue to try to help keep email going
after it graduates from the sandbox.

Thanks Joe, it would be nice to not have to burden Eric so much with
committing all of Mark and my changes :-)

Joe,
Can you add your change to /xdocs/changes.xml? Also, you may want to add
yourself to project.xml as well :-)
