Old 11-08-2002
I'm not mentioning about any specific command. I get the mail only on faliure, regardless on the command i use. Now i want to know where can i change this, like say if i want to change the failure mails to be sent to user@hostname.com rather than to user@company.com ? I was not able to find it in the man pages as well. Hope it clear this time
