I've been using the Email Checker plugin for some time. It has its
limitations, but it meets my needs. It tends to get broken with each
release due to installation issues. 7.4 was no exception.

If you want to use it, you have to find it first. The Wiki is not up to
date, but fortunately kdf has what you need here:
http://kdfplugins.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ kdfplugins-read-only 
Add the above url in the Plugins tab Additional Repositories.

When the page is refreshed you will see all of kdf's available plugins,
including the Email checker. Check the box for the plugin and restart
the server. This will install the plugin.

Next you need to find and edit the install.xml file for the plugin. On
my Vista system it is in
ProgramData\Squeezebox\Cache\InstalledPlugins\Plugins\Email.

Edit install.xml and change PLUGIN_ALARM_DESC to PLUGIN_EMAIL_DESC.
Also change maxVersion to this: <maxVersion>*</maxVersion>

Restart the server and you're done.

If you reinstall from the repository, install.xml will be overwritten
and you will have to edit it again. The reason for this seems to be an
out of date install.xml file in the zip file kdf provides. You can
browse around his repository and you will see the later and corrected
install.xml.
