==Usage==

This activity is typically used to send Emails during the execution of a workflow. Sending is always asynchronous, so this activity will not block the execution of the workflow.


==Example==

Send an EMail with the number of MetaClasses that derive (direct and indirect) from the MetaClass of a given object. Use a (fictional) Gmail account.
