Here is one way to do it, maybe not the most elegant but it works. Use 
it as a guide and improve on it. I set this up ages ago for a client, 
never tweaked it since then.

These will send a note before to say its starting, and then send a note 
after if it completes, whether successful or not. It will also log to 
the hosts backuppc log file. If there is an error it will log that also.

You need to create 4 files. the sample scripts below assume you put them 
in /usr/local/bin

startbkpemail.txt      -> body text for email before
startbkpemail.sh       -> script to send the email before
endbkpemail.txt       -> body text for email after
endbkpemail.sh         -> script to send email after

Modify the variables at the top of the scripts to suit your setup.

Call them in BackupPC like so....
$Conf{DumpPreUserCmd}    = '/usr/local/bin/startbkpemail.sh $user 
$xferOK $host $type $cmdType';
$Conf{DumpPostUserCmd}    = '/usr/local/bin/endbkpemail.sh $user $xferOK 
$host $type $cmdType';

they should contain something like:

startbkpemail.txt

Your Computer is being backed up by the
Automated System Backup Server.

During this time you may experience some slowness on
the network. This is usually only for a short period.

You will receive a confirmation E-mail when the
Backup Completes.

startbkpemail.sh
---------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh
#
#$Conf{DumpPreUserCmd}    = '/usr/local/bin/startbkpemail.sh $user 
$xferOK $host $type $cmdType';
#$Conf{DumpPostUserCmd}    = '/usr/local/bin/endbkpemail.sh $user 
$xferOK $host $type $cmdType';

varDate=`date '+%F %T'`
DOMAIN=yourdomain.com.au
BACKUPPCPATH=/path/to/data/directory
BACKUPPCLOG=$BACKUPPCPATH/log/LOG
NOTIFY=${1}@${DOMAIN}

/bin/mail -s"A Backup of $3 has started..." ${NOTIFY} < 
/usr/local/bin/startbkpemail.txt
/bin/echo "$varDate Backup Started E-mail sent to:(' $1' )" >>$BACKUPPCLOG
---------------------------------------------------------

endbkpemail.txt
---------------------------------------------------------
THIS IS AN AUTOMATED SYSTEM MESSAGE!!
PLEASE DO NOT REPLY!!

---------------------------------------------------------

endbkpemail.sh
---------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh
#
#$Conf{DumpPreUserCmd}    = '/usr/local/bin/startbkpemail.sh $user 
$xferOK $host $type $cmdType';
#$Conf{DumpPostUserCmd}    = '/usr/local/bin/endbkpemail.sh $user 
$xferOK $host $type $cmdType';

varDate=`date '+%F %T'`
DOMAIN=yourdomain.com.au
BACKUPPCPATH=/path/to/data/directory
BACKUPPCLOG=$BACKUPPCPATH/log/LOG
NOTIFY=${1}@${DOMAIN}

### If $2 is a 1, backup completed.

if [ $2 = 1 ]
then
   /bin/mail -s"Backup of $3 has Completed Successfully." ${NOTIFY} < 
/usr/local/bin/endbkpemail.txt
   /bin/echo "$varDate Backup Completed E-mail sent to:(' $1' )" 
 >>$BACKUPPCLOG
else
   /bin/mail -s"Backup of $3 has Failed. Contact your System Admin." 
${NOTIFY} < /usr/local/bin/endbkpemail.txt
   /bin/echo $varDate 'Exit code:(' $2 ') Asset Tag:(' $3')  E-Mail:(' 
$1' )' >>$BACKUPPCLOG
fi
---------------------------------------------------------

That should give you a good starting point.
