Functionality

Functionally great. All configurations under: System > Plugin
- Turn off "Update alert?" before enabling the Plugin (if emailer is not on)

Ease of use

An issue: Site goes down if plugin is enabled without an emailer.
Recovery: Disable plugin via a db update query on _extensions table.
