      If administrator email address is not set, it will be impossible to troubleshoot test email sending errors because ALL users will think that the above-specified "Username" is what is being used for sending emails.

      Proposed solutions:
      1) add a label saying "NOTE: the current admin email address is used as Sender address"
      2) prevent sending a test email if default current admin email address (nobody@nowhere) is active

      See screenshot.
