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.
