Sending reminder emails¶

Redmine offers a rake task that sends reminder emails about issues due in the next 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 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 due in the next 7 days:

rake redmine:send_reminders days=7 users="1,23,56" RAILS_ENV="production"

Note: when asynchronous delivery_methods are used for sending emails, the emails are not sent out whenever the rake task is executed, see #5058.
