You get this error if no valid receiver is specified. I tried your config file and it worked fine. You need however a recent version of elog (2.6.2-7). Probably you have to upgrade.

i would like to have one fixed list, so those users will be always alerted, and to be able to add and adress email in the notification attribute, but i really don't know how to do it
thx for any suggestions |
You can do that with
Preset Notification = someone@mail.com, someoneelse@mail.com
So Notification gets preset with a pre-defined list, which you can edit before submission. |

| Jacky Li | zli@phys.hawaii.edu | Question | Linux | 2.6.1 | Re: large attachment seems to hang elogd? | Hi,
I am having the same problem with 2.6.4.1 and the latest version. It just hangs and taking a long time to upload multiple of 1.5 to 2 MB attachments...or just one few MB attachment. Hope that's a fix soon. |

I did more testing..if I suppress email notification, it is fast. There is something wrong there.

| Jacky Li | zli@phys.hawaii.edu | Question | Linux | 2.6.1 | Re: large attachment seems to hang elogd? | Ok,
I noticed that the email notification got two copies of the attached files to elog post. It looks like the cause is
between elog and the mail server. When there is email notification, the attachement is sent along to the mail server and that's taking a long time and there are two copies of the attachment.

Indeed I can confirm that without email notification it's blazing fast. I haven't observed attachments being send twice. Though I got two indentical entries in the elog.
On my box I'm using sendmail. Until there is some fix in the way elog comunicates with mailer (if it is possible that is) could we have an option to suppress sending attachments in email notification?
Best Regards,
Konrad |

There is such an option:
Email format = 47
This tells elog to send email notifications without attachments. Anyhow I would not recommend to send big attachments as emails, since most email systems won't allow you that. Since the attachments are base64 encoded, the encoding can also take quite a long time. |

Great . I missed this one while digging through documentation.
Maybe you could consider setting as default:Email format = 111

Well, then people will come up and ask: I can see some attachment name in my email, but the attachment is missing, what can I do?. So they would not find the configuration option as you did not, and complain here. You never can make everybody happy 
An alternative approach however would be to limit the attachment size. If above 1 MB for example, do not send it. Then make this a flexible parameter (maybe someone wants 2 MB). I will think about that. |
