Excellent point. We definitely don't want to call too many scripts; they're
costly.
My assumption was that the service outages were rare and all the script would
do was test the time and send the message. I had also assumed that a script
would already be used to send the e-mail.
If you know how to send an e-mail from a ruleset without using the Action node
I would appreciate knowing the technique. I can imagine setting global
variables and picking them up from a Cron task but I think there would have to
be a lot of e-mail to warrant that solution. Any others?

This is only ok if it is a small number of events. If it is a large
number of events this way could cause problems with system resources (I
had this issue).
I did this by using a cronjob that would run before and after the
maintence window and it would simply
1 - add and remove the rule in question into /usr/OV/conf/ESE.automation
2 - ovstop nvcorrd;
3 - ovstart.
