Félix Malfait 83d30f8b76 feat: Send email from UI — inline reply composer & SendEmail mutation (#19363)
## Summary

- **Inline email reply**: Replace external email client redirects
(Gmail/Outlook deeplinks) with an in-app email composer. Users can reply
to email threads directly from the email thread widget or via the
command menu.
- **SendEmail GraphQL mutation**: New backend mutation that reuses
`EmailComposerService` for body sanitization, recipient validation, and
SMTP dispatch via the existing outbound messaging infrastructure.
- **Side panel compose page**: Command menu "Reply" action now opens a
side-panel compose email page with pre-filled To, Subject, and
In-Reply-To fields.

### Backend
- `SendEmailResolver` with `SendEmailInput` / `SendEmailOutputDTO`
- `SendEmailModule` wired into `CoreEngineModule`
- Reuses `EmailComposerService` + `MessagingMessageOutboundService`

### Frontend
- `EmailComposer` / `EmailComposerFields` components
- `useSendEmail`, `useReplyContext`, `useEmailComposerState` hooks
- `useOpenComposeEmailInSidePanel` + `SidePanelComposeEmailPage`
- `EmailThreadWidget` inline Reply bar with toggle composer
- `ReplyToEmailThreadCommand` now opens side-panel instead of external
links

### Seeds
- Added `handle` field to message participant seeds for realistic email
addresses
- Seed `connectedAccount` and `messageChannel` in correct batch order

## Test plan

- [ ] Open an email thread on a person/company record → verify
"Reply..." bar appears below the last message
- [ ] Click "Reply..." → composer opens inline with pre-filled To and
Subject
- [ ] Type a message and click Send → email is sent via SMTP, composer
closes
- [ ] Use command menu Reply action → side panel opens with compose
email page
- [ ] Verify Send/Cancel buttons work correctly in side panel
- [ ] Test with Cc/Bcc toggle in composer fields
- [ ] Verify error handling: invalid recipients, missing connected
account

Why Twenty

We built Twenty for three reasons:

CRMs are too expensive, and users are trapped. Companies use locked-in customer data to hike prices. It shouldn't be that way.

A fresh start is required to build a better experience. We can learn from past mistakes and craft a cohesive experience inspired by new UX patterns from tools like Notion, Airtable or Linear.

We believe in open-source and community. Hundreds of developers are already building Twenty together. Once we have plugin capabilities, a whole ecosystem will grow around it.
