This is a very small python script for Maya that will email the user when the render is complete, with the option of a minimum render time so short renders do not spam the user.
It includes a ui for settings that can be called by:
import dagMail
dagMail.dagMail.ui();
in the Maya python command line.
or
python "import dagMail";
python "dagmail.dagMail.ui()";
in the Maya MEL command line
I recomend saving this as a shelf script..
WARNING: Because of the open source nature of a Maya script, your email password can be accessed by anyone who has access to your computer and can use this script. The password is encrypted in the settings file but Maya has no option for a password field in the ui.
I can implement it in Qt if people ask me to though.
Once you call the ui, you can save all your email settings.
There is a time slot to say how many minutes a render must be longer than before you will get an email. That is so short renders don't spam you.
There is an install scripts button that places the neccesary post/pre render script non-destructively (ie if you have other scripts, it'll live alongside them)
