Hello
when I use the follwing conf/smtpsrvs file:
# 1;smtp.gmail.com:465;youremail@gmail.com;youremail@gmail.com;Y0urpassw0rd;yes;TLS;0
1;192.168.0.17:465;xsibackup@localdomain.de;authuser@localdomain.de;nopasswd;no;TLS
or
1;192.168.0.17:25;xsibackup@localdomain.de;authuser@localdomain.de;Y0urpassw0rd;yes;SMTP;0
Why dont you write at least one complete example for each Method??
1) plain smtp with SMTP-Auth
2) plain smtp without SMTP-Auth
3) smtp secured with TLS with SMTP-Auth
4) smtp secured with TLS without SMTP-Auth
Btw: Why is the following example completely different:
https://33hops.com/xsibackup-smtp-serve … -file.html
It uses mir ":" than ";" as separators....please advise which one is correct.
Kind regards
Martin

Thank you for your answer.
>you can't send the e-mail report,
No you misunderstand me, I can send emails...
The problem is, that I cannot backup just 1 VM when I append the email option, it starts to backup ALL VMs (as you can see in my logs).
But without email to be send, I can backup just the 1 VM I want to backup.
The Shell command:
./xsibackup --backup-point=/... --backup-type=custom -–backup-vms="Xubuntu" --date-dir=yes --mail-.....
will backup _ALL_ VMs existing on the ESX and then sends the email:
But
./xsibackup --backup-point=/... --backup-type=custom -–backup-vms="Xubuntu" --date-dir=yes
Works as expected and will backup just the VM "Xubuntu" VMs existing on the ESX.
But I really want both!!
First Emails AND second the ability to select VMs to be backed up (not always all).
Now more clear??
Thank you very much for your time!!

Sorry but I am really stuck, because I cannot find my fault...
I cannot backup 1 or 2 VMs when I append a email to be send.
Here the result:
[root@esxi:/vmfs/volumes/56e4e6a0-ae62921e-817c-0cc47ab3e5ee/xsi-dir] ./xsibackup --backup-point=/vmfs/volumes/esxi-backup --backup-type=custom -–backup-vms="Xubuntu" --date-dir=yes --mail-from=xsibackup@domain.local --mail-to=admin@domain.local --smtp-srv=192.168.0.17 --smtp-port=25 --smtp-auth=none
