Lua script to send an email?

[cnewswanger]

Hello all,
We are running Lua scripts to create large render image sets that can take days to complete.
I would like to be able to send an email to report on progress of the render process by email or text message.

Has anyone done this?

Regards,
Craig

I'm pretty sure that Lua in Octane is not sandboxed, and you can bring in any Lua library you need or want. If you are on linux or MacOs, I would look for a sendmail Lua library or equivalent. Windows I don't know well enough to even search for a solution.
