I just used OpenRefine to query PMC's ID Converter API to get PMCIDs by sending in DOIs. The GREL expression that I used is
"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/utils/idconv/v1.0/?ids="+value+"&tool=RMDPSU&email=aee32@psu.edu"
PubMed Central IDs are in Pure. There might also be other good sources (PMC itself?).
If RMD had PMCIDs, we could think about suppressing reminder emails if we know there is a copy deposited under embargo in PMC. That would be slightly underinclusive, since there are some things that could be made open sooner, but NIH does a pretty good job of identifying those and making them open.
While exploring this we might also want to look at the DOE and NSF public access repositories to see if they have something similar.
Update May 2023: Given that federal funders will move to zero-embargo policies within the next couple of years, suppressing emails about funded articles is less important. It might still be nice to have data from PMC or other funder repositories, related to these funder policy changes.
