Ron, I was doubtful, but here's my logdrake_service and it DOES look like it's
set up to send a blank email every hour! I know nothing about scripting, is
there an if/then statement missing? I certainly didn't change anything, any
ideas how this happened?
Any advice appreciated -- another 24 blank emails today. <grin>
