On most situation where Koha sends an email to ... anyone, we have no way to
know such action is taking place (script, cron...).  But if the email specified
in the pref starts receiving a lot of emails, that should make it clear.  I
rather have lot of emails in that box that I then need to reforward, rather
than the reverse (call back emails sent wrongly to user).

Actually, we need it on a production server.  (Our) usage is to set as initial
email when things are being set up.  We do not want emails start flying to
users while still getting set up.

Another common usage is for testing, but on a copy a production database. 
Obviously, we do not want users to receive email based on now out of date/sync
data.

This can act as a safety valve on various situation.
