Changes to Email Notifications in Professional v7.7

Hi,

 

I've just upgraded from v7.6 to Professional v7.7 and are doing my first backup. In the preferences I have it set to notify me for both options (failure/media events and successful events). I've just noticed that I'm getting a lot more email notifications since installing v7.7 that I was previously under v7.6 and can't see a way to turn these off.

 

For example I just got the following 3 email that I never used to get previously:

 

Retrospect notification from DELL-VOSTRO (14/01/2010)

 

Date: 14/01/2010

 

+ Retrospect version 7.7.203

Launched at 14/01/2010 1:08 AM

Drive "Exabyte VXA DC, ID 3:11:0" was cleaned

It seems like there are many more events that it notifies in v7.7 and there doesn't appear to be away to selectively disable these. Can someone from EMC confirm that there have been changes to email notifications in v7.7 and if there is a way to configure exactly which notifications I now receive or have it perform in the same way as v7.6 which I was very happy with. I really don't need an email every time Retrospect launches, exits and cleans the tape but do want it for successful backups and other errors.

 

Many thanks,

Andrew
