Send some kind of automated email if the bot was able to complete a transaction. This will be useful for running it in headless mode on something like a server (re: raspberry pi in my closet).

Bonus points for adding notifications for other events like unhandled exceptions and other catastrophic behavior so that it doesn't crash, leaving you with no idea that it did.

I used Twilio SendGrid for this sort of thing before https://sendgrid.com/go/email-brand-signup-sales-1?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_term=sendgrid&utm_campaign=SendGrid_G_S_NAMER_Brand_(English)

That's pretty cool actually, I've only ever done basic Gmail integration which I just opened a PR for. We could replace that PR later with this tool though
