Send backup alerts to a person, not just the shared inbox
Deploy web to NAS / deploy (push) Successful in 1m2s

Failures went to REPORT_EMAIL, which is the media@ shared inbox the Sunday digest
already uses. An alert competing with a routine weekly mail in a shared inbox is
an alert that gets scrolled past, which is most of the way back to the logfile
nobody read.

ALERT_EMAIL is now a separate, comma-separated list for breakage only, falling
back to REPORT_EMAIL so a machine whose .env predates this still alerts somewhere
rather than silently not at all.

Verified by sending one test alert, which arrived.
