- Now we need to enqueue emails
  - hit API with [postman](https://www.postman.com/) or similar client with required params or use curl request
    ```
    curl --location --request POST 'localhost:8000/emailsdigest/api/v1/enqueue/' \
    --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
    --data-raw '{
      "subject" : "xyz",
      "body": "xyz",
      "app": "dummy"
    }'
    ```
  - Enqueue multiple emails to see how they are grouped and combined in a digest.
- Now that we have emails enqueue we ask server to send emails
  - command: python3 Server/manage.py send_emails
