EmailArticle Extension Ready

The EmailArticle extension is ready for use and testing. The documentation is on mediawiki.org, but the code is being maintained here in the Extension:EmailArticle.php article. We had this functionality before in the XmlWiki environment and the new one is based on its email-article.php component.

The new one is a special page called Special:EmailArticle and is used from in the "this article" menu in the navigation tree. The new version allows more diverse recipient selection and custom CSS stylesheets.

The EmailArticle extension uses Brent R. Matzelle's phpmailer class which hasn't been under active development since 2005, but is still being maintained at sourceforge.
