Here’s a more in-depth description of the email alert feature for the README.md file:

Email Alerts Script This script automates the process of sending email notifications or alerts, making it ideal for use in monitoring systems, error reporting, or sending periodic updates based on specific events.

Functionality The email alert feature provides the following functionalities:

Email Notifications: The script allows users to automatically send email notifications for specific events, such as system errors, updates, or other important triggers.

Customizable Content: You can customize the subject line, body text, and recipient(s) of the email alert by simply modifying the script parameters.

Logging Mechanism: Each email that is sent is logged with details such as the time it was sent, recipients, and status (success or failure). This helps in auditing and debugging.

SMTP Server Support: The script uses an SMTP server (such as Gmail, Outlook, or any custom SMTP service) to send emails. The server details need to be configured within the script.

Error Handling: In case of any connection issues or authentication problems with the SMTP server, the script logs appropriate error messages to help troubleshoot the issue.

Multiple Recipients: The script can send alerts to multiple recipients by providing a list of email addresses. This makes it easy to notify a group of users or team members about important events.

Security: The script supports secure connections to the SMTP server using TLS/SSL, ensuring that email credentials and content are encrypted during transmission.
