I added notification of what the checkmark means, automatically load the Exchange snapin if not already, and append the subject of the email with a status summary.  If there are no backups that need attention, all okay is added.  If there are, it says that attention is needed.  This provides a quick way to know if anything needs attention.  Download the script here.

Version 1.11 correctly resets the checkmark status during each loop; when cleared before because no backup has taken place, it remained as a null value for later backups that were successful.  Updated version is available here.

I have made some minor updates to my PowerShell script that reports (and emails) the last backup of each database in your organization.  I was referencing the wrong variable when looping through the databases in a storage group, so each storage group in the report listed all the databases on the server.  I also change the formatting a little so the text in different table cells in the same row actually look to be in the same row (the checkmark was offsetting that cell a bit).  You can download v1.1 here.
