Make configuring SMTP with SSL easier

      The current process for setting up a secure smtp connection is a joke.

      The process is very simular for JIRA too:

      The problem with the JIRA process is that it requests the user to move jars around in the archive we give them (on top of the config problems)!

      I've attached a screenshot of setting up secure smtp in TeamCity - no xml editing, no downloading certificates, it's all done from the admin screen and works first go.

      This is going to become more of a problem as more people move to Google Apps, as the gmail smtp server will only allow secure connections.
