Re: [BackupPC-users] Not getting mail from BackupPC

Well, that worked -- I got an email from BPC to let me know
about the folder that was not a backup target.

On another mail-related note, every time I go to, or refresh,
a host homepage within BPC, one of the Summary messages
at the top of the page is

Last email sent to norm15 was at 4/24 05:26, subject "".

The time is always the current time, and the subject is always empty.
But, there are no such messages in my inbox.

As Les explained earlier, emails are sent as part of the Nightly,
respecting also the minimum time between such emails. What events
trigger emails being sent?

Thanks, again
Norm

I followed Les's suggestion and entered a non-existent
folder and file to backup.

No, I meant put a directory under /var/lib/backuppc/pc that isn't a
backup target.

 I initiated an immediate incremental
backup.  After it completed, the log showed no errors, and no
email was sent to my account.

Emails aren't sent at the end of a backup run, they are sent when
Backuppc_Nightly runs, which should be the first time in your wakeup
interval list.
