Title: R1.8.3 fixing a fews issues I've reported to stimmt

I fixed a number of issues, summarized under the following JIRA Issue:

https://studio.plugins.atlassian.com/browse/MAILTONEWS-4

The codes bumps the version number to 1.8.3. and implements the following issues:

https://studio.plugins.atlassian.com/browse/MAILTONEWS-2 - use getName() instead of getFullName()
https://studio.plugins.atlassian.com/browse/MAILTONEWS-3 - allow for "illegal" Characters in Confluence >= 4.1

Furthermore, it makes the job schedule visible in the Admin console (ADMIN:Scheduled Jobs) where one can run the job manually, change the frequency of the job, disable it and have a look at the history. I thought this might be useful.

The plugin version implements a rudimentary (but working) version check with a regular expression for the "illegal characters" code, allowing all kinds of characters for Confluence > 4.1. It actually checks for a Confluence version between 4.1 and 4.9 (with whatever suffix is present), which should be sufficient for a while.

I don't have the possibility to test this on Confluence versions below 4.1, so use at your own risk!
