[hylafax-users] re[2]: add date and timestamp to e-mail notification

[Dave Butcher <dbutcher@xxxxxxx>]

Thanks Bodo,
Don't I have to define `date` first?  How do I do this?
If I just change the script as you suggest, it doesn't seem to work.  (I haven't found a specific error yet, but now I'm not receiving any confirmation e-mail...)
Cheers,
Dave

Hello Dave,

the date/time of the mail message is the time when the job has been  
finished.

If you want this in the subject message body you could modify the  
notify script to include
`date`
or
`date +<format_specification>`
in some text that will be written to the mail message.

examples:
putHeaders "$jobtag to $number completed on `date`"
echo " was completed successfully on `date '+%d %b %Y at %H:%M:%S'`."
