Allow error mail report to be sent programmatically

[GoogleCodeExporter]

When the following code is executed:
Error error = new Error(ex, HttpContext.Current);
GotDotNet.Elmah.ErrorLog.Default.Log(error);

Include an option to perform the "errorMail" action either automatically
when .Log() is called or by specifying that an email should be sent in the
parameters.

This is now possible via the new ErrorSignal class. See:
http://elmah.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/src/Elmah/ErrorSignal.cs

Calling ErrorSignal.Raise will go through the same set of events as when an 
unhandled exception is encountered. In effect, you'll get logging plus mailing 
(even 
filtering) if that's what's configured. As a result, this issue is being 
considered 
fixed for now. If there are issues with ErrorSignal, these should be reported 
as new 
issues.

Hmm... Only problem with using ErrorSignal.Raise is it expects an exception, 
whereas ErrorLog.Log excepts a type of Elmah.Error.  If you wanted to create an 
elmah entry using an Elmah.Error type how would you do this (and send email) 
without throwing an exception?  Or can an exception be easily created using all 
elmah.error properties?
