I'm amending this proposal to include what I want to do further in the future.
My goal is to decrease the quantity of hudson mail while making it easier to use.
I would like to start by sending additional mail, one message per day with an aggregated
build
report and run a report which checks for new regressions and send mail every 10 minutes or
so when
there are regressions.
The second step is to solicit input about the usability of the new reports. I think seeing
reports
in action will make it easier to see what makes a report most useful. This will be
finished when we
are happy with the reports.
The third step is to remove the existing mail system. I will propose this step when I
think the new
reporting system is satisfactory.
WDYT?

I'm +1 to getting reports going.
A technical challenge is that unless one of the build agents has access to a mail relay,
it will not
be able to send mail. If this is a problem, it can be fixed by signing up with an email
service and
placing the password in a file on the filesystem of the agent which the job is bound to.
The file
can be loaded by the configuration script.
