Whats the differendce between redmines and the plugin implementation? know the gui allows to define the days and implicit the users. Does the plugin send one email for all reminds per user or per issue per user (this would mean spam) Does it send only one reminder per issue or every rake call one reminder per mail, although this issue already has been reminded the day before? (this would mean spam also) Since 2.3 redmine has its own rake taks to send reminder mails. http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/RedmineReminderEmails I can send emails to users with 1 who have assigned issues that are due in the next of days: Do you make use of that ? How des it deal with the questions i asked above?

1) one email for all reminds per user 2) every rake call one reminder per mail (so you should invoke rake only once a day)

difference between redmine rake task and plugin is that you are able to: configure reminders for several days configure reminders without bothering an admin

Do you make use of that ?

No, plugin has its own implementation

I am not sure how redmine handles it.." that are due in the next of days:" does it mean the same issue gets reminded in every mail for every rake task call for every day in due? For exmaple i have an issue which is due in 7 days and i call 'rake redmine:send_reminders days=7 RAILS_ENV="production"' 7 days i get an email 7 days before with that issue redminedn. Do i get the same issue reminded again and again if i call it 6 days before, 5 days before, and so son. Do you know that?

As i understood ur plugin only reminds once per configured day, so if i have user settings "Remind issues in these days" 1,3,5 i won't get the issue redmined in a email created by a rake task 2,4,6..and so days before the issues due date. Correct?

Sorry, I do not know how redmine notification works.

As for the second statement, yes, it is correct.

Best wishes, Oleg Kandaurov
