EXAMPLE

25       In this example, script-email is scheduled to be run before the DLE, on
26       the server.  The unqualified email address amanda will be passed to the
27       email system unchanged.  The script is then attached to a dumptype,
28       which can then be specified for any DLEs which require notification.
29        define script-tool pre-email {
30          comment "email me before this DLE is backed up"
31          plugin  "script-email"
32          execute-on pre-dle-backup
33          execute-where server
34          property "mailto" "amanda"
35        }
36
37        define dumptype user-tar-email {
38          user-tar
39          script "pre-email"
40        }
