AIUI you're not forced to send mails with smartd, just remove the '-m root' from your smartd.conf file, and then it'll just use syslog, and logcheck will not repeat that information at all. Obviously this has the drawback to warn you at logcheck rate rather than smartd (which performs checks more often). But I must say I agree with Martin here, by default logcheck should not assume that you already read smartd errors through another channel, that should be a per 'admin' setting (IMHO). -- ·O· Pierre Habouzit ··O [EMAIL PROTECTED] OOO http://www.madism.org
