In the hosted environment, allow the Queue module to send emails

If I host RE myself, this feature is available, but it's not available in the hosted environment.

It's an incredibly powerful feature, as it allows me to create daily/weekly/monthly recurring reports that are automatically emailed to my audience so that they get information at their fingertips.

I love being hosted, but would hate to have to stop being hosted just to get this capability.

    This suggestion has been up for a long time, but "Send as Mail" [email] is available in the hosted environment - for Mail and Reports only.  It took a while to support to help me configure email server setttings, and you should set up a supervisor-level user account just for Queue, but it does work.  

    Here's a list of RE modules available in Queue, and Actions for each:

    • Admin
      • Run Import
    • Batch
      • Commit
    • Export
      • Export [to a file]
    • Mail
      • Export [to a file]
      • Send as Mail [email]
      • Word Merge
    • Query
      • Export [to a file]
      • Refresh
    • Reports
      • Export [to a file]
      • Print
      • Send as Mail [email]

    Yes, please! We are just starting to use Queue, and I am also frustrated by this.
