After a profile has been run, SyncBack can email the log file. This is especially useful when SyncBack is located on a remote machine. The log file will be sent as an email attachment.

 

_bm11 Email the log file after the profile has run: To email the log file, enable this option.

 

_bm11 Only email the log file if an error occurs: If you only want the log file to be emailed if the profile run failed, then tick this checkbox, otherwise the log file will be emailed after every run. The email subject will be prefixed with [Failed] if the profile run failed.
