>From the docs: "Most notable is that the days of the week are numbered 1-7 for sun-sat" Tuesday is day 3, not day 2 Also note the bit just above where it says: "In most cases it is better to use a expire-default: value than to define a rule that matches all possible times." _______________________________________________ Dirvish mailing list [email protected] http://www.dirvish.org/mailman/listinfo/dirvish
