9 * @class
10 *
11 * This class represents an interface to the program 'mail'.
12 *
13 * To send a mail, create an instance and fill the properties
14 * (see reference) with proper data.
15 *
16 * @example
17 * var mail = new Mail("This is the subject");
18 *
19 * // At least one recipient is mandatory
20 * mail.recipients.push("max.mustermann@musterstadt.com");
21 * // To add several recipients
22 * mail.recipients.push("max.mustermann@musterstadt.com", "erika.mustermann@musterstadt.com");
23 *
24 * // similar to the property recipient you can use the properties 'cc' and 'bcc'
25 *
26 * // If you want to add attachments [optional]
27 * mail.attachments.push("logfile.txt");
28 * // or for several attachments
29 * mail.attachments.push("logfile1.txt", "logfile2.txt");
30 *
31 * // The text of the message is set in the property text...
32 * // ...either as single string
33 * mail.text.push("This is line1\nThis is line2");
34 * mail.text.push("This is line1");
35 * mail.text.push("This is line2");
36 *
37 * // Send the message
38 * mail.send();

100 * program returns, or the pipe will be closed automatically
101 * in the background when the 'mail' program has finished.

105 * @returns {Integer}
106 * The return code of the 'mail' program is returned (0
107 * usually means success), undefined if block was set to false.
108 *
109 * @throws
110 * An exception is thrown if any validity check for the
111 * properties or the arguments fail.
