Mail Portlet - backport backend and features from mail-portlet in trunk back to 5.2.x

current mail portlet in 5.2.x:

• uses an older/slower method to synchronize files
• stores messages and accounts on the file system
• has some timeout/locking issues.

the mail portlet in trunk/6

• downloads the messages headers (very quickly)
• stores all data in the database
• improved connectivity so there arent timeout/locking issues
