Does a mail server exist in Confluence?

[Rocco Balsamo]

I am following this tutorial on sending mail from a plugin:

https://developer.atlassian.com/display/CONFDEV/Sending+Emails+in+a+Plugin

I have boiled this down to two working lines:

MailQueueItem mailQueueItem = new ConfluenceMailQueueItem("xxx@yyy.com", "A test email", "I request the world!", ConfluenceMailQueueItem.MIME_TYPE_TEXT);
        multiQueueTaskManager.addTask("mail", mailQueueItem);

This ouputs

[confluence.mail.template.ConfluenceMailQueueItem] send Unable to send email since no mail server has been configured.

I realize that Confluence may not always have a mail server configured. How, in code, do I detect whether a mail server has been configured (so that I can do an alternate operation)?

Thanks!
