My tracks installation shows me on the integration’s page how to have a daily email sent with due actions.

As the example is for unix, I’ve rewritten this as a windows bat file for those on windows - worth scheduling this one to run before you wake in the morning.

Here it is for those interested:

curl -o todos.txt -u tuser:tpass "http://localhost:8000/todos.txt?due=6&token=9754938ef73264a88739e932"
blat todos.txt -subject "Daily Tracks" -to destemail -f fromemail -server smtpserver -u suser -pw spass 

You will need to change
tuser to your tracks user
tpass to your tracks password
the server and port that tracks is running on
You need to put your own token in (found on the preferences page)
destemail to your email address you wish to send to
fromemail to the address you wish the email to be addressed from
smtpserver to be your SMTP server
suser to be your smtp user
spass to be your smtp passwed

Also you will need curl and blat installed.
curl: http://curl.haxx.se/latest.cgi?curl=win32-nossl
blat: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=81910&package_id=83961&release_id=497595

Have fun.
