Hey,

I want to use Rules module to send email to the content author, when someone is edits its date field. It's a custom content type which I've made. Can someone provide me a little bit help with achieving this?

Notifications may not be the best fit for your specific use case, but I use it to get e-mail updates when content is updated.

Event would be "After updating existing content"
Condition "Entity has field" to check for the presence of your date field and to bring it into scope
Condition "Data comparison" to see if the date of your $node is different than the date of your $node_unchanged
Action "Send mail" to [node:author:mail]

If you're still having problems with this in the current version of Rules please export your Rule and post it here so we can see exactly what you're doing. Also describe how you've created/configured your date field.
