ah, now i got it (i think)
in the source code there are different log level defined: info, warning, error,
...
and every level is passed to the resource where the level matched.
so the "fatal" email address gets only the line of output where the fatal error
happens.
the "all" email gets also the informational lines of the output.
i think this is very bad and should be fixed in the code and not in the
documentation.
every fatal message should also get the informational lines which leads to the
fatal error.
i know that fatal messages should be addressed to people how can handle them,
but in a team of 10 that is not always the fact, they should receive this
additional information too
