Is there a way to get Perforce to send you an email on every check to a particular depository?

Yes. Type "p4 user" to see your user configuration and then under "Reviews:" put the filespec of the area in depot where you'd like to get notified on a check-in, as in: <pre class="prettyprint"><code>Reviews: //depot/myproject/... </code></pre> See this section of the P4 command reference for more info.

In p4v (visual client) <ol> <li><code>Connection</code> -> <code>Edit Current User</code></li> <li>Enter the path to your repository under <code>Reviews</code></li> </ol> This is correct for OSX & Windows.
