how can i send a json+ld schema.org email to myself in gmail

Question

gmail recently announced schema.org support for in-app and one-click actions. They note that one can immediately test out the schema by sending an email from oneself to oneself i.e. from x@gmail.com to x@gmail.com (1)

My question is how do i send an email with the json+ld schema.org markup - I can only send text and/or html and if i try to send using mailgun / sendgrid etc. than the email won't be from x@gmail.com

So, how do i test this??

Many options, three that come into my mind right now are:

1. use the Apps Script Gmail service, as shown in our Apps Script quickstart guide
2. use App Engine as in the end-to-end example in the documentation
3. connect to Gmail via SMTP to send emails from there
