EMail Report

[rratt]

I would like to see an email report sent to a email address before reboot/shutdown. Not sent if no updates installed. I am willing to write it (if I can find the time).

You can make use of the templates wsusoffline\client\cmd\custom\FinalizationHook.cmd (rename from .cmdt) where you can analyze WSUS Offline's exit code or environment variable - probably %REBOOT_REQUIRED% and %RECALL_REQUIRED% - and act accordingly, calling a console mail program like Blat or Bmail or some other program mentioned in this StackOverflow thread.

Cool, that a good idea. I have used blat (I am also a contributing programmer).
