  •  You can add the "Move to = B" command in logbook A.
  • Then you add "select" in "List Menu commands = ..., select, ...".
  • Now you "Find" all entries of the type you want (for convenience choose "Display 9999 entries per page").
  • You press "toggle all" and then "Move to B"

I changed only the screen output. The username is printed not not encrypted, to be able to check it by eye. The 
username sent over the network is and was always encrypted.

The only clue I have is to compare the network traffic you get with an email client (outlook, thunderbird ??) 
with the network traffic you get from elogd. To monitor the traffic, I use normally WireShark (formerly Ethereal, 
www.wireshark.org). You have to filter for "tcp.port == 25" which is SMTP, then capture your traffic, right-
click on it and select "Follow TCP stream". The result you see in the attachment. The strings produced by elogd 
are pink, the strings from the SMTP server are blue. In my case I don't have authentication (our SMTP server does 
not support this). In you case, you have to compare the traffic from a functioning email client with elogd.

Here is what I got as email:

Test:
./There is a dot just before '/There...'

So I guess you mean ONLY a dot at the beginning of the line. In the email 
SMTP protocol, at lonely dot at the beginning of the line means "end of 
message" and the mail server stops by that. I checked my mail program and 
found out that it converts a single dot into two dots at the beginning of the 
line. I have to implement this in elgod.c. Thanks for pointing out this 
problem.

I implemented that (->CVS): a <CR><LF>.<CR><LF> is replaced by 
<CR><LF>..<CR><LF> in email notifications. Now I don't know if all browsers 
under all OS's send a <CR><LF> on line break. If some don't, please let me 
know.

I added a new option

Mirror exclude = 1

which has to be put into the individual logbook section (not the [global] one).
The modification will be contained in the next release.

Can you please be a bit more specific? Do you mean the web site to download elog? Or is it some functionality of elog?

Thank you.
