h1. Sending reminder emails
Redmine offers a rake task that sends reminder emails about assigned and active issues that are past due or due in the next specified number of days.
Available options:
* days: number of days to remind about (defaults to 7)
* tracker: id of tracker (defaults to all trackers)
* project: id or identifier of project (defaults to all projects)
* users: comma separated list of user ids who should be reminded
The following example will send an email to each user who has assigned issues that are past due or due in the next 7 days:
rake redmine:send_reminders days=7 RAILS_ENV="production"
The following example will send an email to users *1*, *23*, and *56* who have assigned issues that are past due or due in the next *7 days*:
rake redmine:send_reminders days=7 users="1,23,56" RAILS_ENV="production"
When adding this to your crontab, add the rake command to a small script and make sure to add the full path to the rake command (since the path is unknown when executed through cron); eg:
<pre>
#!/bin/bash
cd /usr/local/share/redmine
/usr/local/bin/rake redmine:send_reminders days=7 RAILS_ENV="production"
</pre>
