[ZendTo] Drop off reminder email does not contain full URL

[Jules]

Craig,

You need to set the setting
     'serverRoot'
in preferences.php.

The upgrade_preferences_php should have shown you that this was a new 
setting it had added.

It is mentioned in the ChangeLog for 4.25-3, which was where I 
introduced it.

Sadly I could not find any reliable way of deducing the server's root 
URL from within the nightly cron job that sends out the reminders. From 
the web site code, it's easy (the end user's web browser will tell you 
if no one else does!). But not from a cron job.

Cheers,
Jules.
