the send tag doesn't display any error, if no correct email adress was set or 
add. it also doesn't display any error if the mail wasn't able to send.

If you use the error tag as the example shows, it will print out all email
addresses that are not proper email addresses i.e.
<characters>@<characters>.<characters> (I'm not sure exactly how it works but it
is similar to this).  Also since the mail is sent in the background as a thread,
it will not print anything to the user.  However it will log the fact that it
was unable to send the email using the ServletContext.log() method.  And
depending on what is configured an email message should be sent to the from
address telling the sender that the message was undeliverable.
