Change the contact email for software error message

Whenever an error occurs in SFX, a message will pop up:
...
For help, please send mail to the webmaster (sfxsdb@sfxdev)
...

This email address is set by the ServerAdmin line in the httpd.conf file in an instance's config directory. You can edit the file and set the email address to what is appropriate for your institution.

The instance's apache server will need to be restarted for the change to take effect. This will cause a minor interruption in service (should be no more than a few seconds), so it is recommended that you restart apache server during off-peak usage times.

The text of the error message cannot be currently changed, only the email address.
