And, for what it's worth, a workflow operation handler for this is
almost finished at:

https://opencast.jira.com/svn/MH/contrib/workflow-operation-handlers/1.1.x/EmailWorkflowOperationHandler/

It would be a great thing to pick up on and wrap up.  Last I recall the
big issue was including the Java SMTP libraries in OSGI was causing
some problems, but I think maybe the geronimo jars (from a little
googling) would solve this.
