  This health check ensures the test email is sent only once to prevent
  hitting SMTP rate limits due to multiple health check executions.
  The logic checks for a temporary file (/tmp/email_sent) to determine
  if the email has already been sent. If the file exists, the email
  is skipped, but the health check continues by verifying the HTTP service.
