Thanks. That tallies with Carlos' advice. I run rsnapshot (which uses rsync under the bonnet), and when it sends me error messages they are addressed to bob@linux.local. The machine's hostname is barrowhillfarm. My initial guess would have been bob@localhost for internal mail, as you suggest.
If your local domain is configured as "linux.local", I would expect "bob@barrowhillfarm.linux.local" to work too. If your root mail is copied to your user, you could even just leave MAILADDR as "root@localhost". /Per -- Per Jessen, Zürich (1.7°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
