Email notifications of event log entries

[Mike]

Does anyone know of a way to send a notification by email
of a Windows event, i.e. notification of serious event
such as hardware failure?

Thanks.

Don't know about hardware failures, but services can be configured to send
an e-mail on failure. Select the service in the Services applet and double
click on the Recovery tab. Select Run a file. The file would be a batch
file that runs a command like:

echo The Server service failed on %computername% at %time% , %date%>
%computername%.txt

Then a command line mailer is used to send %computername%.txt eg. see:
