Send Message
This operation is used to send different type of messages to users in the application.
Current Implementation
The supported type of messages are email and alert.
In order to be able to use this operation, a user must have 'send_messages' permission.
The current implementation delegates the actual message sending to Action Agent. This is an asynchronous operation. The current implementation will not wait until Action Agent comes back before returning to the client. The implication of this is that if Action Agent fails in delivering the message, the client of this operation is not notified.
