There are multiple ways to set up email notification on ticket creation
or modification.
I think simplest of them is using IFTTT approach, but i spent lot of
time before i could find it. Hence I strongly feel this should be
documented in official wiki, given that this such a common requirement
In this approach we use IFTTT service to connect rss feed of Fossil scm
to Gmail channel.....
We had a similar need here for a project that unfortunately could not
have a public-facing server, all the RSS-based services I could find
could not do authentication, and I didn't want to involve 3rd party
services in any case. I eventually found rss2email [1] which allowed me
to set up a similar connection between ticket changes and internal email
recipients. It happily runs on a Windows PC from a periodic Task Manager
event and sends the expected emails when it sees new RSS events.

The big downside for me is that it requires configuration per user and
per repository. It isn't easy, for instance, to get emailed when any
ticket on any of my repositories changes. It also doesn't have a lot of
configuration for what information to drop in the email, and the
resulting emails little more than hints to go read the actual ticket.
IFTTT may merit a second look for my projects where I do have a public
facing server, assuming it can handle the needed authentication.
