Hi,

I just installed 0.11rc2 and was wondering why the event

backup-start and backup-finish

where not handled separately in notifyadmin

Per default notifyadmin doesn't know these two states and sends an mail 
"The backup daemon on ... reported an unknown error. / FILES MAY NOT BE 
BAACKED UP" on every start and end of backup.

That's not what one would expect on a normal backup start and stop...

I recommend to add these two lines in notifyadmin in line 5 to shut up 
the notifier ;-)

if [ "$1" = "backup-start" -o "$1" = "backup-finish" ]; then
   exit 0
fi


best regards
Wolfgang
