Hi Phil,
Noted. I will look into mutt now.
At the same time, I found out that if I comment out the mailcommand
directive, I end up receiving email notifications with the subject "Bacula
Message" and the body containing the output of the job ran. Based on the
documentation, this means that the email was sent with:
mail -s ”Bacula Message”<recipients>
However, my system does not have the mail command installed. Any insights
as to how the email was sent?
Also, my MTA is mail-mta/ssmtp-2.64-r2.
