Inform user of Hangout mail connection timeout #463

The system fails to send an email due to a MailConnectException:

com.sun.mail.util.MailConnectException: Couldn't connect to host, port: smtp.gmail.com, 587; timeout -1; nested exception is: java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out: connect

But then it just goes on and says "I have sent an email to XYZ...". It needs to say something like "I am having trouble contacting XYZ by email right now. Please try again later".

Actually, the weather information is updated while the user is waiting. It is cached whenever there is a full PC reboot (boot.bat).
