Email notification

Thanks for the feedback.

Views Mail is smth different - as the project page says, it is targeted to send custom mail messages to a list of users generated by a view.

I wouldn't do anything like dispatching sending of the mails (and creating templates for this mails) in this module. Instead we should look into integration with some other modules like Rules and maybe Messaging/Notifications.

I will investigate that.

OK, found some time to check on it.

First, there has been just released a module called Voting Rules. It should allow you to set up a rule to send an email when a user submits a nodefeedback form if this form has at least one radio-button question (cause only the radio-buttons ones are using the VotingAPI to store its values). Apparently, it also requires the Rules module. I haven't tried it myself yet, but it should work fine. I'm using Rules on several on my sites and it gets the job done. Let me know if you try this out ;) And Rules should actually have all the capabilities to notify any custom email or all users in a role, or even the node author or a user in the user reference field in the node.

The second approach would be to define a view with the feedback data - be it from the VotingAPI DB or from the nodefeedback DB table. Then use the combo of Views Saved Searches and Notifications/Messaging. See this article for a short description. It should allow you to subscribe to your "views saved search" and receive notifications on updates in this view. Another note would be that you need the cron running for this way to work, not sure about the first one.
