edited (HACK) to use our proxy settings. Just for testing I removed e-mailing socket yadayada. This should be done properly.
added some typo corrections and unused imports. Also fixed __init__ signature - currently no way to ignore (set emails flag to False) as it is always set to true although there seems to have been an if statement which would respect ignoring sending of emails. Also, added a return statement to getSMTPServer if the section is commented out.
added a proxy section to config (defaults to none being used - commented out). Edited shotgunEventDaemon.py to not fail if no proxy option is found.
