Support $MAILTO values with'#' char in gen_default_broker_cfg.sh.
16853gen_default_broker_cfg.sh: Fixed issue supporting $MAILTO values containing '#'.

There was a 'sed' expression that choked when $MAILTO value contained a '#' character,
e.g. "#PerforceAdminsDistributionList" (where the '#' indicates a distribution list on
an Exchange Server).

The sed utility allows for various delimiter characters, e.g. ':', '/', '#'.  The idea is
to select one that on won't conflict with whatever your are substituting.  The
prior version assumed '#' was a good delimter for $MAITO values, but that has proven
not to be the case.  Now the '/'' character is used for that particular sed expression
instead.
