Marc,
I just had an instance where R:Base quit emailing
because I locked down the SMTP too much on
our email server. It looked like they were happening
but they just never went anywhere.

<<
Is it possible to make my app send a email to me when someone starts my
app
and could this process be invisible to the user?
Yes, if the user has an internet connection and 1) you can program his
mail server info into your application or 2) you have available to you a
mail server that will accept mail relayed from any address without
authentication.
Consider also either storing the login information in the database and
connecting when you want to see it or setting up your own server that
would accept an incoming HTTP PUT request to log the user's use and then
LAUNCHing that request on user startup.
