-        Six different functions currently call ns_sendmail.  This
-        means that there are six different end points for sending
-        mail.  This should be brought down to no more than two (one
-        for acs_mail and one for acs_mail_lite), and ideally just
-        one.  Functions that currently call ns_sendmail directly
-        should instead call acs_mail_lite.

-        Outgoing email functions (acs_mail and acs_mail_lite) must do
-        the following: 1) Determine the appropriate language or
-        languages to use for the message subject and message body.  2)
-        Encode the subject and body appropriately and set message
-        headers, in accordance with RFC 3282
