How to E-Mail backup notifications for Windows Backup

I love SBS - but we occasionally get a server that doesn't use it but we will still want to use Windows Backup. I hate not having reports, therefore we came up with the following alternative for emailing backup success events:

It utilities a third party mail sending tool which you can specify remote email servers and authentication parameters

1: Setup your backup job and successfully run it at least once
2: Go to your event viewer and then "application and services logs"
3: Enter the "Microsoft" folder and then "Windows", "Backup" and select "Operational"
4: Find the successful backup log (It should have an event ID of 4) and then right click on it and select "Attach a task to this event"
5: Name the event (I leave it as the default name) and click "Next"
6: Because we're tying the task to an event the information will already by filled in for the second section, so click "next" again
7: On the action page, select "Start a program" and click "Next"
8: Extract the Send Email application at the top of this post to somewhere on the server and then browse to it and select it as the program to launch.
9: In the "Add Arguments" box enter the following details:
-f fromaddress@somewhere.co.uk -t toaddress@somewhereelse.co.uk -u FromName -m EmailSubject -s your.mailserver.co.uk -xu mailserveruser -xp mailserverpassword

Be sure to change the above for real values, a breakdown of the options are:

-f from address
-t to address
-u from name
-m email subject
-s mailserver
-xu mailserver username
-xp mailserver password

10: Click "Next" and then "Finish"

Your event task is now created - if you go to the task scheduler and select "Event Viewer Tasks" you should able to see it in there and even run it to check it works.

Works a treat - kudos to SendEmail team for lightweight app
