Have a look at Koha system preference "EnhancedMessagingPreferences"
(and also "EnhancedMessagingPreferencesOPAC" if you want to let the user
decide how many days in advance he will be noticed).

https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Customising_Notices_and_Slips#Differences_between_advance_and_overdue_notices
Of course you will have to prepare notices "PREDUE" and PREDUDGST" to
your needs in Koha menu "Tools > Notices & slips".

Also be aware there is a cronjob named "advance_notices.pl" in your file
"/etc/cron.daily/koha-common".

> Also is there a log kept of the overdue notices that have been sent?
You may use Koha system preference "NoticeBcc" to send every notice to
your e-mail address.

> I am using Postfix to send mail, and Koha 17.11
Hope this helps.
