[JENKINS-64629] Fix uncaught exception for unauthorized users

[jvz]

When attempting to email a user with a locked, disabled, or otherwise unauthorized account, different types of AuthenticationException were not caught which would cause the mail to fail.

Close enough.

Thanks for the PR! I'll get a release of this out in the next few days. I'm going to first see if the users in the bug are willing to try an incremental build before I push this out to all users.

@basil - I'm happy to help test an incremental build. We're currently using mailer plugin v1.32.1; I'm not sure how that plugin and this one (email-ext-plugin) are related. Our builds are freestyle and we use the "E-mail Notification" post-build action.

Let me know if I can assist--thanks!

Can I help with testing or any release preparation?
