When using a mobile device like an iphone as a personal data hotspot, some data plans do not allow ping-style connection checks, leading to a "couldn't be sent - host not connected" error message despite having connectivity.

This PR adds a curl-based connection test that can be used by setting EMAIL_CONN_TEST=c, avoiding being blocked if ping-style checks are not allowed. Documentation was updated as well.
