nssbackup

no mail report

Asked by robert leleu

I configured the report tab to receive a mail report at my usual address, using my usual smtp, and checked that the mail test gave an OK answer.

However I don't receive any report...... (I tried to find a nssbackup log file, but did not succeed)

OK, I found the logs files, and didn't find in it any mention about sending a report mail.
Googling, I found that other users used this report system.

so why is it that It doesn't work for me?

thanks for any help

To get a mail report from nssbackup, perhaps should I install somme program, (postfix for instance), shouldn't I?

Always trying, with no result, to receive a mail report from nssbackup
here is my conf file for the relevant part (this conf get a positive answer when I check it):

[report]
from = NSsbackup Daemon <email address hidden>
to = <email address hidden>
smtppassword = .........(here is in clear my password)
smtpuser = <email address hidden>
smtpport = 587
smtpserver = smtp-msa.orange.fr

the more curious is that I found that I previously, in last december, succeeded, but in the most relevant part I find no clue to understand how I did....
