_Sorry I submitted early.._
... What we created was a "next step" field and also a "next step" date.
What would be ubercool is if we could schedule to send a mail based on that field.
That would be a very cool feature if it did the same with tasks that are due as well.
We could even support such a feature in a modest bounty if it helps.
Thanks for this great tool.

Hmm .. sounds interesting but I think (IMHO) that this business case should not be a part of the core. However, if you get skilled help this feature should be easy to solve. Basically you could create an external script that queries the database through a periodically scheduled event (cron would do good, in linux) and emails when needed.

Tasks that are due .. you _do_ know that email reminders already exist? See this "forum post":/boards/2/topics/show/2037

I'd agree, this would be too specific feature to be in the core. It would be good as an external script or a plugin if it needs configuration.

If you need help, you can post in "the forum":http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/boards/show/2 and get some help in there. Or you can "contact me":http://www.redmine.org/account/show/5 and I'd be happy to work with you (my business does custom Redmine development).
