I am building a "project management" system, where admin can set a due date on a post using post forms. I would like to automatically send out a e-mail when the date is overdue.

Is this possible?

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Well - when you add an email notification to your post form, if post-expiration settings set with the form, you can trigger the email notification based on post-expiration settings.

Please check the following Doc:

HI,
So the only way to trigger the email is to let the post expire (draft)?

Is it possible to activate the notification by custom fields? (Date?)

The only way to check date is overdue is using the post-expiration feature. Please check how post-expiration works:
