Default Re: llamaserver email madness

Basically the scheme was like this:

if (llamaServer receives a 2h file from a newer version) then
- Send out an e-mail to everyone
- Postpone all hostings by 24 hours
- Shut self down

Unfortunately the last step there was malfunctioning, due to a missing and crucial '>'. So it did the same thing every five minutes over the whole night. Also it postponed all hostings till February! But I've fixed that now.

The difficulty really was that I had no way to test it when I wrote it. Normally I test things quite a lot to be sure they work (I seem to suffer from rampant typos). So I was worried it might not work, but it never occurred to me that it would go crazy.
