3 months ago I was torn where to put it since it's not specific to a device or software. But I don't disagree with you.
Should I resubmit it or is there some backend way to move the request? never mind I see you did that already

Is this a feature relevant to companion itself, and not a module?
Is there an existing issue for this?
Describe the feature
Add an ability to send email as an action. Email contents should be user-defined and could include any variable values or conditions the system knows about
Reference: https://support.google.com/a/answer/176600?hl=en
Enhancements: User could configure a way to restrict email frequency to prevent "spamming" from a condition that was bouncing. Maybe the "held" messages could be queued up and sent all in one email.
Usecases
Without being co-located at my system's GUI, I'd like to know in relative real-time if my system is used in some specific way, or if certain thresholds are met, e.g. if a device reports an error condition.
