Send e-mail notification when a critical error happens

The uptime monitoring tools don't detect when a critical error breaks the site because the status code doesn't change. It would be good to have a feature to send a notification when a critical errors occurs on a site.Note: it can be done with a code snippet and the Code Snippets extension

    Like many I’ve used the third party monitoring tools. Many of them are great but it seems like all of them have little quirks here or there. The MainWP solution is ideal because it is part of the platform and doesn’t require setting up yet another third party connection to the site. Making this as robust as possible is an excellent play long term. Not sure if it makes sense or not but maybe even having a docker image or something that could run on different cloud providers that could phone home to the MainWP server so that functionality could be load balanced and queried from multiple locations.
