Antonio,
I've got a mailfeeder tool that I wrote for testing a long time in
the past, uses standard sockets type stuff in linux in plain C, BSD
licenced and no external libs required.

Thing is, you still need to have an appropriate mail server to send
the mail to.

first of all: thank you very much for the great tool - it "rescues" a

You are welcome. :-)
BTW, many people could avoid using ddrescue if they made regular
backups. Specially if lzip is used to compress the backups[1].

I'd like to propose following feature: email notifications about the
progress. I.e. the process of creating an image of a failing drive might
be long, very long. It would be nice to have the ability to make
ddrescue inform about its progress once in a while. Like send an email
to a provided address every 3 days, reporting the progress; or send an
email every 25% recovered...
It sounds interesting but difficult. Sending email requires
configurating some software to access the mail server. Suggestions
about the best way of implementing this feature are welcome.
Best regards,
Antonio.
