The SMTPAppender is currently not supported in Android because it requires
the javax.mail package, which Android does not support out of the box.
Since it's a non-trivial task to add this support, I simply removed this

Indeed, it's lack of time. You can submit a feature request (via an
Issue<https://github.com/tony19/logback-android/issues/new>);
and/or implement and pull-request it.
