[mythtv-users] Can A Custom Recording Rule Email Matches?

I just had a thought and a quick Google search didn't turn up any 
previous discussion of the topic.  In previous posts, I recall Bruce 
Markey suggesting setting a custom recording rule to match pilots or 
premieres and then deactivating the rule.  In this way, one could see 
new shows that might be of interest when viewing the upcoming recordings 
and then decide if the show was worth recording or not.  I have done 
this and it works great when I remember to review my upcoming recordings 
on a regular basis.

Could this be taken one step further?  Is there some way to have MythTV 
send email when a recording matches a rule.  Maybe just one email per 
day of upcoming recordings that match a particular rule.  I highly 
suspect this is possible but with my limited experience, I have no idea 
how.  Has anyone ever looked into this?

Thanks,

Drew
