Create a scheduled task that connects to Exchange and runs once a day:

$NewMailboxes = Get-Mailbox -ResultSize unlimited  -RecipientTypeDetails RoomMailbox  |?{$_.WhenMailboxCreated -gt (get-date).AddHours(-24)}

$Report = (

$NewMailboxes.userprincipalname|
Sort-Object UserPrincipalname |
ft -AutoSize |
Out-String



)
$count = ($NewMailboxes).Count
if ($($NewMailboxes | measure).Count -gt 0) {send-mailmessage -to ******@contoso.com -smtpserver **yourMailServer** -subject " $count Room Mailboxe(s) Created in the last hour" -From 
******@contoso.com -Body $Report}

Thanks @Andy David - MVP . Iam worrying about the second part of the script as send-mailmessage is gontta tbe deprecated. and am getting the error below

Send-MailMessage : The SMTP server requires a secure connection or the client was not authenticated. The server response was: 5.7.57
Client not authenticated to send mail. [MAXPR0101CA0030.INDPRD01.PROD.OUTLOOK.COM]
At line:1 char:1

Send-MailMessage -Subject "TestSMT" -To "******@cloudmonkeys.xyz ...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

CategoryInfo : InvalidOperation: (System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient:SmtpClient) [Send-MailMessage], SmtpException

FullyQualifiedErrorId : SmtpException,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.SendMailMessage

i tried to execute the below command before send-mailmessgae

[Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12

can we use the below code instead of send-mailmessage

$emailSmtpServer = "mail"
$emailSmtpServerPort = "587"
$emailSmtpUser = "user"
$emailSmtpPass = "P@ssw0rd"

$emailFrom = "from"
$emailTo = "to"
$emailcc="CC"

$emailMessage = New-Object System.Net.Mail.MailMessage( $emailFrom , $emailTo )
$emailMessage.cc.add($emailcc)
$emailMessage.Subject = "subject"

$emailMessage.IsBodyHtml = $true #true or false depends

$emailMessage.Body = "body"

$SMTPClient = New-Object System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient( $emailSmtpServer , $emailSmtpServerPort )
$SMTPClient.EnableSsl = $False
$SMTPClient.Credentials = New-Object System.Net.NetworkCredential( $emailSmtpUser , $emailSmtpPass );
$SMTPClient.Send( $emailMessage )

Why do you need to authenticate it? Just send the message through the default front end connect via port 25.
