Is there any way to send email notification of only the message and not the attachment.

You have to use 

Email Format = 47

to remove the attachments. The encoding is decimal, not binary, so you have to do 1+2+4+8+32.

 Dear Stefan,

I tried Email Format =47 . still am having problems.

With Postfix limitation of 1MB elog is giving error message of 'Error sending Email via "<domain name>": 5.3.4 Error: message file too big

Without Postfix limitation, its sending email with the attachment.

Thanks

 In that case you have to make one logbook per user and restrict the access to it using the "Login user = ..." directive.

 I guess you are modifying the wrong elogd.cfg file. Note that you have to send a HUP signal after you changed elgod.cfg for the daemon to re-read the file. Try modifying something else (like adding a new attribute) and see if the daemon sees the change.

 Adding a new attribute is working fine... Has it to do with the elog 2.6.3 version and also I downloaded from ubuntu's synaptic package.. Will the latest release of elog solves this problem???

I don't remember exactly when this feature was added, but it would well be that it was after 2.6.3, so upgrading would help.

 I understand.

Thank you for the quick response.

It is possible that the Move to... and Copy to... commands can be configured so that when they operate on a message that is part of a thread, that only that message will be moved, instead of the whole thread?

 Thanks Stefan. Now I have installed 2.7.4 and the problem is solved. but am having another problem. Elog is giving the same error message if the logbook has more than 5 subscribers for email notification. Upto 5 subscribers it works fine. I am sure its not postfix problem as I am able to send to more than 5 addresses in pine.
