Re: [BackupPC-users] Disable No Backup Warning Emails

[Ryan M. <rma...@pr...>]

Here's a simple fix.

Edit /etc/aliases and include the following line of text:

null:   /dev/null


After editing /etc/aliases, run the 'newaliases' command as root. Then 
go into the BackupPC Config for the host and change the 
EMailAdminUserName 
<http://192.168.2.38/cgi-bin/BackupPC_Admin?action=view&type=docs#item__conf_emailadminusername_> 
to 'null@localhost'. Save the settings and the emails will go to 
/dev/null unto you modify EMailAdminUserName 
<http://192.168.2.38/cgi-bin/BackupPC_Admin?action=view&type=docs#item__conf_emailadminusername_>.
