Try to play around with events:

To run your observer after reset password action

controller_action_postdispatch_customer_account_forgotpassword

and in your observer add checking if email is sent

$email = (string) $this->getRequest()->getPost('email');
if ($email) {
    //here place your code to notify customer
}

  • I have tried using above events. my code is here..its not calling the observer method.<controller_action_postdispatch_customer_account_resetpassword> <observers> <send_forgetpassword_sms> <class>Test_Tested_Model_Observer</class> <method>ForgetPasswordAlerts</method> </send_forgetpassword_sms> </observers> </controller_action_postdispatch_customer_account_resetpassword>

Use eventcontroller_action_postdispatch_customer_account_forgotpasswordpost instead of controller_action_postdispatch_customer_account_forgotpassword
