This will be good feature especially if slow migration is used for migrating users

Whether the account exists with that email or not, the default message indicates a message will be sent.

If the user does not exist with that email, no email is sent.

The reason to avoid returning an error is to limit the ability to enumerate the users in the system, generally considered a bad thing(TM).
