AppenderSendmail: Send emails via sendmailR

Description

Send mails via sendmailR::sendmail(), which requires that you have access to an SMTP server that does not require authentication. This Appender keeps an in-memory buffer like lgr::AppenderBuffer. If the buffer is flushed, usually because an event of specified magnitude is encountered, all buffered events are concatenated to a single message. The default behavior is to push the last 30 log events in case a fatal event is encountered.

Value

The $new() method returns an R6::R6 that inherits from lgr::Appender and can be uses as an appender by a lgr::Logger.
