Idea: Send via email with Zapier #19

My ideal way of getting this digest would be via email. For self-hosted instances, Zapier email would suffice. I think what would work would be:

mastodon_digest has access to a Zapier webhook key
a compact template designed for email
the tool POSTs to the webhook, with the email body already in HTML

Kick that off in a cronjob, with a pretty basic Zapier task, and it should just work.

I think it's a nice idea! Out of scope for this repository, but a great idea for a fork. @mauforonda has a working implementation built on top of a GitHub Action.
