Can someone share a sample email notification? I want to see what the email includes.

I see that we can't specify our own SMTP configuration because FFS uses Mailgun + Amazon.

So now I want to know what content the email will have.

If the email will have a lot of the files that were transmitted, then that is not good or secure.

This is with the default settings; Error | Warning | Success
So by default, all files are listed.

(In this case, only 3 files, total.)

Actually, what was sent, is the html version of the .log

Ah. So it lists all of the files transferred. :( That is unfortunate. Thank you!

You can also select combinations of; Error | Warning.

Looks like Warning still sends files.
(I would not have expected that.)

Error, assuming there are no errors, doesn't send anything.
(I don't know what would be sent if there were errors?)


In this case, only two files, one a warning, the other, MPUI.exe.

Thanks. I do hope this gets looked at/fixed. This is the only thing stopping me from using (and donating money to) FFS over GoodSync.I don't want a list of my files to go through Mailgun and Amazon.

Like therube mentioned, the list he(?) shares is with the default setting (Error | Warning | Success), but he also mentions that you can change the setting to only show Errors and Warnings or just Errors.

Then, only file-names for which Errors respectively Errors and Warnings occurred will be in the E-mail.

Yes, but those still show file names, right?

If I can't control the SMTP server, then I only want to get information like # of success, # of error, # of warnings. I don't want any file names in the logs as that breaks the security.

If it is that critical to you, you can define a command to be executed on (FFS) completion, invoking a custom script that sends an E-mail via your self-selected server.

Yeah. I might consider that. Thank you!
