You can do something like:
<condition property="foundErrors">
<available file="errorFile"> (or maybe some other condition)
</condition>
<antcall target="sendErrorEmail"/>
...
<target name="sendErrorEmail" if="foundErrors">
...
</target>
The "if" means the target will only run if foundErrors was set to true.

Subject: Conditional tasks
I'm trying to figure out how to call a task, conditionally. From what I
see
I can set properties with a condition, but how can I traslate that to a
task. For example, I only want to send mail to people if errors were
found
in the build log file. I'll create my own code for parsing the build
log,
but depending on the results I may or may not want to send email.
