How to receive an e mail notification when my Mac finishes a copy.

Hi there. I left at the office my Mac copying a big chunk of data from one HDD to another. I was wondering if is a way to setup my Mac to send me an e-mail when a task is finished, in this case copying . In my day to day, that would be a very useful feature.

Thanks

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.5)

Only if you are using a program with such a feature.

You would have to search the iTunes Store to find such an app. I know of ones that do so within a room, but not wirelessly. It is doable with a remove computer, however, using Screen Sharing (sometimes referred to as Back To My Mac.) I don't know if it's possible with an iPhone to use it, however. But if it is then someone has probably written an app for it. You can do it from your office Desktop if it's a Mac.
