module: email
short_description: Send an email
description:
  - This module is useful for sending emails from playbooks.
  - One may wonder why automate sending emails ? In complex environments
    there are from time to time processes that cannot be automated, either
    because you lack the authority to make it so, or because not everyone
    agrees to a common approach.
  - If you cannot automate a specific step, but the step is non-blocking,
    sending out an email to the responsible party to make him perform his
    part of the bargain is an elegant way to put the responsibility in
    someone else's lap.
  - Of course sending out a mail can be equally useful as a way to notify
    one or more people in a team that a specific action has been
    (successfully) taken.
