IPA needs a method to warn users via email that their IPA account password is about to expire. There are users who don't regularly login to their linux servers so they need to be reminded and this is the internal policy.

Metadata Update from @fcami: - Custom field changelog adjusted to EPN stands for Expiring Password Notification. It is a standalone tool designed to build a list of users whose password would expire in the near future, and either display the list in a machine-readable (JSON) format, or send email notifications to these users. EPN provides command-line options to display the list of affected users. This provides data introspection and helps understand how many emails would be sent for a given day, or a given date range. The command-line options can also be used by a monitoring system to alert whenever a number of emails over the SMTP quota would be sent. EPN is meant to be launched once a day from an IPA client (preferred) or replica from a systemd timer. EPN does not keep state. The list of affected users is built at runtime but never kept.
