Add support for email notifications

[emagaliff]

Adding the ability to send email notifications would allow users to also receive text notifications via "SMS e-mail addresses", eliminating the need for a service and instead relying only on a mobile phone. As of now, the only way to receive texts is by signing up for some of the paid services push supports.

This should be doable already by sending notifications to a script that utilizes sendmail (or the system's equivalent command).

Any examples of this? I looked at the code and there doesn't seem to be a way to trigger a custom script. Only curl, which isn't helpful in this case.

Actually, the Python branch supports sending emails using SMTP. It's entirely possible that this should be closed as "implemented" (in a future release). @jreese?

I would like to see it as well.
Its not like that there are other ways possible to do so but this module has many configuration options which makes it extrem powerful.. hope we see that one day..

For the moment, a custom URL GET request would be the way to go. I leave it to more experienced folks than myself to think of the security ramifications of putting up a script that sends emails, though, even if it does require a secret key of some kind…
