[Bacula-users] Bacula invalid sender

 
Hello

Earlier I was shown a sample for the -f option which I tried, but it was
unsuccessful.

I deleted all conf files and reinstalled bacula with default settings And I
found that the default recipient was now root@localhost.

Emailing resulted in invalid recipient

Changing to my isp email address as recipient, the error then Changes to
invalid sender,and I cant move from here.

Below please find part of my server-dir.conf

Any help you can provide will be great.

Thanx/peter

Hello.

In my case it's:
mailcommand = "/usr/local/sbin/bsmtp -h localhost -f \"\(Bacula\)
bacula AT ultrasoft DOT ee\" -s \"Bacula: %t %e of %c %n %l\" %r"
