Not what you asked for, but maybe someone would be interested, here's one I wrote that looks for specific event ID's within a certain time frame, formats it into a HTML file. You can do whatever method you prefer to then e-mail that file. Change the variable $5hoursH to a value you want, and down in the process section change the target event log and filter the appropriate event ID's.
I use reuse this code for several scripts that do things like scan Exchange mailboxes for corruption or verify mass automated application installs were successful. I just enter in the additional code in the begin or process section as needed so it's all performed by a single script. For example, I might pull from a SQL DB server names and feed them into a variable, build a function that runs an install from some network location, then I would change the relevant code I've included here to scan all of the servers for particular event ID's (success or failure) from the previous hour.
param( [parameter(Mandatory=$true)][string]$server, [parameter(Mandatory=$true)][string]$reportfile )
begin {
$rightNow = get-date $5hoursH = $rightNow.AddHours(5)
