Currently the "activation link e-mail" and the "Password reset e-mail" routines don't account for SMTP server issues which means that if the server fails to send the e-mails there is now way for a user to activate his/her account or restore a forgotten password. When the background scheduler functionality is implemented, when a failure is detected from the SMTP server, a new task should be automatically scheduled to try and re-send the e-mail until it succeeds.
