Jan Haderka reopened MAGNOLIA-4673:
-----------------------------------


This issue needs to be cloned to MGNLMAIL and fix on master of mail module as 
well.
Further more rather then using {{quietNewInstance()}} and then checking the 
null and throwing exception:
{code}
             mail = Classes.quietNewInstance(rendererClass, template);
+                throw new Exception("Failure to instantiate rendererclass: " + 
rendererClass + ".");
{code}

you should use just {{Classes.newInstance()}} and let the exception that is 
thrown from this method go through instead.

> MgnlMailFactory fails with NPE when failing to initialise renderer.
